Did you say easy? Is there such a thing on a motor and tranny conversion?

I have caught wind of a few members starting a possible swap, but then they die of old age before it's done.

You need to find a fwd car with a really low first gear, I can't think of any, then weld the differential together so they are locked. I think finding a motor the right size with a low first gear is the hardest part.

Keep us posted if you find anything. I will do the swap myself if we find the right set up.

I just joined the form today and I've been looking at engine swaps for my t2 trooper.. I live in Indiana and the Joyner is geared great for the type of riding I do.. But the cherry motor doesn't have no where near enough power..mine is really low on compression too.. I want to stay with same 5 speed tranny.. A friend of mine gave me a d16z6 Honda civic motor.. 125hp stock..

The trooper will carbon up causing low compression. Have you pulled the plugs and put a few ounces of marvel mystery oil in the cylinders overnight? I had low compression on a cylinder, put 2 ounces in it for a few days and it came back. Also you may want to run some in the fuel and oil sometimes. Not sure if your interested in doing so but might be alternative to engine swap. I've also put a turbo on mine, plenty of power.

What are you using for fuel tuner?

I am running a Mallory fuel pressure regulator (PN MAA-4305M) for supercharger and turbo applications from Summit Racing. Just run vacuum to it from the intake manifold. I pipe it in with some fittings from local hardware store. I also have a gauge on the regulator from Summit (PN SUM-800199), dual fuel pumps from parts store running in parallel, they are AIRTEX E2000 pumps, you can cross the E2000 with Carter, Bosch, spectre, etc. I like these pumps because they have a lifetime guarantee and I run in mud and water, so when they fail I can run to the local parts store and grab another. Changed the fuel filter out to a 1997 Chevy Z71 filter, once a gain for easy replacement. Not sure if it was necessary but I removed my fuel cell and had a local weld shop put half inch bungs in the supply and return ports of the cell (I don't have aluminum welding capabilities) and run half inch supply line to pumps. 100 octane LL fuel.

Sorry haven't been on here in awhile.. been really busy with the Joyner..I looked very low compression in every cylinder..I looked around online and found a auto parts online store in China.. they sell all kinds of parts for the Joyner motors..[ sqr472 ].. I ordered everything the I needed.. new rings,gasket set,rod and main bearings,new oil pump. I got everything for about $100 US with shipping..!! I overhaul the motor once I got everything and it still didn't have enough power...!!!!i then ordered a cheap t3 turbo off eBay ..I got it put on and modified the stock header  to mount the turbo..I bought a universal fuel / timing control off eBay . ( it's a piggyback ecu..) still been trying to get that all hooked up and I'm waiting on some an fittings to come in for the oil cooler for the turbo..

its universal aem fuel/ ignition controller. Came with software and all for around $300 off eBay. But you have to splice into you harness at the fuel injectors,map sensor, and cam sensor,and 02 sensors.. or buy another adapter harness for another $500..then u plug it into a laptop and use aem software to tune.. I really want to run the aem controller.. but there's a lot to it and instructions only tell you so much and still tryin to figure it all out.. I also think of just buying the ejk dubeck fuel controller you have instead..do you order it from them or silver bullet..?? They told silver bullet version is more suited for a turbo..

It was a night and day difference. I don't have any numbers as far as HP and Torque. With my 28" tires on the pavement mine begins to pull the front end when it boosts. The front passenger tire will leave the ground a few inches in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. Right now I have 30" super ATV intimidators on the buggy that are actually 32" tall. It doesn't pull the tires with those on it but it will go anywhere I want to go with authority, just drive it on the aggressive side.

      Hi, 
      I'm in Australia and need to replace the footbrake pads and cable (weak point if you ask me, bad design), plus might as well get the main brakes done at the same time.
      Anyone know an Aus dealer, or, know the parts number or equivalent in the petrol version?
      Cheers.

      Hello, All!  I've decided to replace the traction batteries in my 2018 Sector E1 with a 48V Lithium set. They may be expensive, but I figure the Discovery Dry Cell are, too. I am not looking for the max driving range, as I have never received near the brochured range to begin with, but a good mix of charge/ get work done/ charge is what I am expecting.
      I have settled on the 48V EAGL kit from bigbattery dot com. Each battery pack provides 30Ah. The kit ships with a charger, as well. The packs would be physically connected in parallel (using a busbar) to one another, maintaining the 48V voltage, but together would be able to provide the amp draw the buggy pulls when going up hill or towing a rake (rated 320 max continuous Amps). This is in comparison to the serial connection the eight 6V lead batteries. Each of the EAGL batteries looks to have its own BMS; am I correct in thinking I will have to use their included charger rather than (simply) changing the onboard charger to lithium mode? The chemistry of the pack is LiFe PO4, for what it's worth.  I haven't torn anything apart yet (to diagram), so  I am not sure how the dash will interpret the AMP draw, but the kit I am looking at includes a dash mounted charge indicator.
      If anyone has completed a similar conversion, do you have any tips? Specifically, how did you remove the original batteries, and how did you secure the new ones? I am guessing that almost any change from the stock batteries would involve at least some modifications. Any tips would be appreciated, especially things I may have failed to consider. Thanks!

      Hello 
      I have a 2022 Massimo t-boss 550. I’m looking for a fix for my timing problem. It keeps getting out of timing. Now I’m trying to find the proper parts for the linhai motor. I’m looking for tensioner chain and gear. If there’s anything else I can do to fix this issue please let me know. Unfortunately I can’t afford to get something better so I got to get it fixed. Thanks in advance.

      My "R" light on the dash will not go out when I take the UTV out of reverse and put it into any other gear. Is this just the light switch issue or will this effect engine performance in the other gears?
    • By Smittay
      (posted a similar question to the Hisun folks) Looked at a lot of UTVs lately. Couple Questions about Massimo. Some people say they are just cheap with no customer service. Other people seem to have no problems with them.
      Any opinions on Massimo durability?
      Heard parts might hard to get. Is that true?
      What models are the best?
      If you had one and didn't like it what do you recommend?
