Do you still have the polaris 325 motor you removed?

I've seen tons of local projects like this.
Excitement at ripping out the old gear, a little hack and slash to get a fit, frustration at serious impediments, bewilderment at getting the wiring or jetting or pipe to work. Often if they do get running they are yard queens. Never reliable enough to ever go far. I built a few myself (300 Rotax in a XL250). Even my KTM powered Blaster took a year to work out the bugs and has some limitations (mainly gear range).
Do not enter these projects without great experience and DO NOT assume a swap will be cheaper than repairing what you've got. It won't be. If you don't already know the answers, you probably don't have the skills for a swap.
Build a pipe for your Blaster, learn jetting inside and out, lengthen your swingarm, get you drum brakes to work top-notch, these things will build the skills to do swaps. If you cannot build a pipe that works better than stock Blaster, you will be unable to get anything meaningful out of an engine swap, especially a 2 stroke.
