I toss a gy6 150cc engine and swap it with harbor freight's most powerful engine! Just by looking at this massive engine I can tell this thing is going to haul! Stay tuned for more..

"invests" not "wastes". it is a trade, that is worth it, if you can do the round trip for less than $20. however, it is true: you can't save all of the $20.

Great job my friend. I already subscribed. . I bought a Chinese dune buggy, super cute, but it began falling apart right away. . In a span of 6 months I had to call the tow truck 5 or 6 times. The electrical components were of the lowest quality. I had to change many parts. I had already spent about 10% of what I paid for it brand new. The warranty was very limited. . BUT, I love it. Where I live is street legal, and finding a parking space is a breeze.

I had one of these buggys for my goddaughter (served with her father in Iraq in 09) we took her in shortly after, had a blown motor and saved for months to be able to afford a used 600cc motor to swap in it, whilst it was in the yard on the trailer, criminals broke the lock and hauled both of them away, she was devastated but I'm not sure who was more upset, her or me. Someday we hope to get another buggy and swap the motor so we can ride together.

@Vasily Custom Builds I highly recomend that if you could to get a older polaris Trail Boss trans because it will have High, Low, Neutral, Reverse and you can hook up a speedometer to it, You wouldn't have to worry a bought the 670 blowing up those trans because they can actually take a lot of power. and also with the polaris trans, you could hook the secondary clutch from the cvt kit for the 670 right up to the trans and they are not even that big either
