[!bmth!]

ive picked up a pitpro 140 le once i get bored of the power i was thinking of picking up a pitster pro 175cc would it be hard to install New 20HP PitsterPro z175 HO Engine, 6 Plate HD Clutch, 175CC - DHZ Mini Moto thats the link to the engine its only $700 on dhz pretty cheap yeh just need some tips on if it would be hard to change engine and what i should do

 

[!bmth!]

anyone i need some advice or atleast a link to another thread on the same with good advice

I think it would be a fairly easy swap? Just unbolt the old and bolt the other motor in?

save the money and get a better bike like the dhz crf70 160 as the 175 dosent have much more power than a 160 and the dhz bike is heaps better than the pitpro your talking about

the main problem youl have is the current engine and exhaust are crf style, the new engine is a klx style, so youl need to get a new pipe too

Doing an engine swap isnt that hard but there is a few things you will need.
With the 175, Like MattyB said you will need another exhaust..there's $139, You will need new cables..Theres $11ea. you will need a Carby and they start at $130 for an OKO 28mm, keeping in mind that does not include a manifold or uni filter. A OKO Race kit will set you back $175..So with the 175 included.. thats well over $1000 so far. My question is how much do you want to spend?

For the price of the 175 alone, you could get a Z160ho plus exhaust, carb and what ever else you need.

There is more than enough info on engine swaps in our tech sections and build section, my advice would be to start there and have a read before you make your decision.

Hope this helps.
