Thumbs up

I recently changed my '98 Transport 440 engine out with an '88 fan cooled 488 trail engine and I am replacing my 1" lug 141" track with a 2" inch paddle. Do you forsee any problems, or have any comments on what I should do to keep my machine in top perfomance?

I think I'd make sure you have it geared down enough since your putting that big track on that engine.

GEAR IT DOWN LOTS. You will find you're greatly underpowered with that big track on. I have a 700 and went from a .92 track and installed an 1 3/4 and noticed I had to gear down.
