If it were mine, I'd do this

Would cost less than converting to a predator and perform better. And way less work...

Another option would be the Vegascarts 625 set up. For $1600 delivered everything would be brand new including the primary clutch, drive belt and exhaust system and it also it a bolt in. The thing to consider is what kind of shape is your present exhaust system and primary clutch are in.

I looked at those I would love to do that. But budget wise it may have to sit for a bit.

Been in this business for 35 years, never seen it or heard about it. Guess I must be dealing with good customers.

Is the area marked with red line a crack? Sorry about your motor.
