Well I have decided to build a blaster with a yz 250 motor in it.After some talking to Jake(braaapbraap95) he is going to supply the frame for this project and some elbow grease.lol I ended up getting an 86 yz250 all torn down and fully disassembled.Came with a new bore,piston,connecting rod,etc.Motor looks super clean with zero hours.Need to get crank seals and a new water pump impellar.It will be a work in progress and will take some time but it will get done.I need to still get a pipe for it.Well here is some motor pics and Jake will post some pics of the frame.

yeah where do you plan on putting the radiator???

Should not be to hard.They are dirtbike radiators,which means two pieces.I will make a spot in the front close to the motor for them.If that does not work I will get a larger single radiator and use that.But the radiator does not seem to be a problem at all.Motor mounts and pipe is more of a concern than the radiator but time will tell.We will also make a rock guard to protect them.Thanks
 
i think theres some pics of twin radiators and mounts on macdizzy.com,
in the "blaster/dt 200" pages, he used the twin bike rad's and mounted one on each side like the bikes do,
i also like the way the double core rad. mounts on this page, possibly order just the rad????
