That's why I thought a big cc v twin bike, gearbox and all. You'd still need a car gearbox for reverse. Still not exactly practical but torquey and lots of gears. Only thing that makes real sense is a car motor, just like everyone else.

there is FNR boxes available.. but cost a pretty penny.. upto 4grand just to have reverse

That's a diff for a mini buggy. It would not hold up to the power and traction of a four wheel drive with a high performance engine.

On a US buggy/gokarting forum I used to frequent it would seem the normal price for a running older model snowmobile is few hundred dollars. It leads to quite a few amusingly overpowered vehicles.

Quaife to a chain driven forwards and reverse gearbox.

Cool but again lacking low down grunt. Large single will be pretty choppy down there too unless a large flywheel is used.

Engine seems good, no fan of the CVT though. If it had a proper clutch and gearbox it'd have to be good in a LJ50!
