Yea i think thats what I will do because I only get a top speed of about 52 MPH with the stock chain case to small of a gear in side. I think I will keep the chain case but just take out the guts so it will still hold the axle in place and figure out a jack shaft and sprocket setup. Do you have the stock secondary on yours the stock one sucks so I think I will try to figure out how to put a snowmobile one on I think the snowmobile shaft is a quarter inch bigger. Thanks for the Reply
@oddyextreme .......Yes, we used the stock secondary clutch, we took it apart and cleaned it out. We didn't have any shifting issues with it that I knew of. We did have to put a spacer into the stock AC 440 clutch to fit the narrower belt.
are you using the stock chain case I have a 400 in mine and cant get any top end with it. I was thinking about getting rid of the chain case and doing a jack shaft and sproket setup does this sound like it would work.
@oddyextreme ....That was the biggest problem with this machine, keeping chains from breaking. Yes, we used the stock chaincase (actually replaced it 4 times) with an aftermarket street bike race o-ring chain. This machine is geared so low you almost couldn't push it. I attempted to get the other guys on the project to go with a sprocket idea, I though it was a really good idea because you could just change sprockets from different speeds when needed. I think it would work.
@calholli Depends on the year and if the engine has power valves. A Ski-doo dealer should be able to tell you the HP. I know the REV 500SS engine (the old 600 in the ZX chassis) is approximatly 105 hp.
@Burnem79 ... it says rotax, adjustable, variable, exaust.. but I'm not sure what that is.... I have a rm 250 dirtbike that has powervalves .... but the rotax doesn't have it like that..... does anyone no what the RAVE does?
@hondafourstroke , for 2001 Arctic Cat claimed 105hp from their 440 snowcross race sled engine (I think the consumer 440 was half that or something). We never had any proof this is what we were getting. It was a lot of fun, when we weren't working on replacing the chain and chaincase.
@Turbojeep23 -yeah you're right, I wasn't thinking the power came from the high compression heads and race fuel. So I guess if we left the high compression heads on it and ran race fuel in it, then it would be the claimed 105 HP. We were running 93 in it at the time (cheaper and more readily available that Cam2). Thanks glad you pointed that out!
I have a question for anyone who would know what they are talking about.I've been wanting one of these bad ass toys for awhile .I have a brand spanking new Harley 1200 custom engine that was going to be used for a project bike that I changed my mind on.How hard would it be to adapt a V-twin engine to a Honda Odyssey ?
@demmylowther , I think the biggest problem is going to be space, then how to attach the engine to the Odyssey clutch and chaincase. If you come up with a solution make sure you post it.
@MidwestMadness775 -I'm sure it would be fine, but you're not going to get the power you would from a liquid cooled engine. We originally had a Rotax 440 fan engine in it. It was a lot of fun until we found out what the 440 SnoPro engine did. The fan wouldn't be as complicated, no radiator and the stock Odyssey chain will probably work.
What kind of mods did you have to do, eg. motormounts, etc.? Just got 2 of them, rolling frames, one with engine that has compression, but all else is unknown so far. I'd like to look around for a sled engine, so I'm just curious.
@jaystonerider, the engine plate was just some tube steel, no motor mounts. This was a mistake because it would vibrate very bad. Everything was based off clutch alignment. You'll need to find a belt that will work first, then position the engine. From there place the gas tank, oil tank, exhaust all in remaining locations. I look at this now and so glad we did this, because none of us have time to even think of a project like this now. -Aaron
@Mercy040 ya its better with the music, it makes the video better even tho it would be awsome even without any sound, nice job with the odyssey dude!!!!! that thing is beast!!!!!
i had two of the 250s and traded them for a boat......the boat runs great built well but i wish i wouldnt have traded cause these oddesys are so much fun
i did the same thing with a 750 kz. inline 4 cyl motor cycle engine. they claimed 77 horse but its pretty torquy too. had to extend the frame by a foot to get the engine to fit. still rides a wheely in 2nd though... scary with no suspension.
I would think so, I'm not sure on the cc's of the engine in a Geo Metro but I'd guess it was larger, requiring more cooling capacity. You are probably alright.
well dude that is something that is hard to put a price tag on because of all the time the owner put in himself but all ther peices could cost anywhere from 1000 to 5000
i would have put a skidoo engine in it but how much are one of these worth cause i want to buy one but i dont want to pay arey more then they are worth
yea i do that too i take my time i dont just throw it together and leave a cobbled up mess because when i build something i expect it to last but its been my dream to own one after i got my 250r
i just bought an fl250 last week with a 540 yamaha snowmobile engine its so sick and its liquid cooled i love oddys only one problem.....its strait stinger pipe this thing needs a muffler badly lol
i have the sled one only because i figured that the stock one wouldn't be able to handle the power the way it should and i would hate to see my power being restricted... what are you usin and what engine i'd love to see your ody
i have a 400 artic cat motor in mine and i have a really sweet roll cage with a nice racing seat. how did you get the snowmobile clutch on did you have a custom sleeve made cuz the shaft is 3/4 and i think most snomobile shafts are 1 inch. I will send you pics of mine you will love the roll cage on mine and i have no plastic on it.
so my thundercat 900 pushing 190hp or polaris xlt 600 pushing 150hp is out of the question??...100hp in a sled is nothing, and easy to make...most sleds make that or more stock
dude why sell it? its too good to get rid of. that is soo insane for power to weight! man it seems perfect for packed snow, packed dirt, or gravel but not bumpy offroading due to no rear suspension. crazy video though. i think it was one of the best go kart videos on you tube!
my 350 odyessy has independent rear just like a pilot. i think it was one of the last year make of the odyessy. looks more like a white pilot with gold wheels
The Odyssey has nothing, the axle is mounted through carrier bearings to the frame. The only suspension in the back is the squish of the tires. Honda built a Pilot and that had full independent suspension front and rear.
I have no idea, do a search on youtube, there are original machines on here. You could ask those people. We never considered it because we like high HP in small vehicles and the original engine was blown.
hey i just got one of tes same year and all and i wana put a sled engine in it and i was wondering did you have to make any big changes to the engine area to make it fit and will the axel take all the torqu well thx..
The engine area I believe was cleared of all old engine mounting. We built a base for the engine and mounted it. As for the axle, that was fine. The chain case on the other hand was the weakest link(literly). Depending on the engine you used you'll need to replace the chain with a strong o-ring racing chain from a street bike. We must have broke 3-4 chain cases and the only place to buy one was ebay. Send me your e-mail and I'll send pictures.
Hi I change gears with left foot peddle , right foot brake , left hand clutch lever on steering wheel , throttle right hand lever on steering wheel.. check out my vid man ..Dazza
i just picked up a 85 FL250 ody for $500...it needs piston rings.... should i just swap tha engine for a rotex snowmobile engine.. i can pick up for $100?
We did all the work to the machine. Depending on the cost and availibility of the piston and rings, along with the rest of the top end parts, you might be better off with an engine swap. There's a bit of fabricating that needs to be done to do this though. I'd weight out the two options before doing anything.
how much you want for it, i live in pa, and growing up me and my dad restoresd a fl250 and nothing was stock, everything was bigger better and it was fucking fast, we sold it though, and if you know were to find anymore odessy let me know
The FL250's are cheap and fun, but the serious ones are the FL350 and the Pilot. Full A-arms in front and actual suspension in the rear. Hoping to sell me FL250 to get one. :)
i have got 2 of them and i would like to know what i have to do to it to make it crazy good i have the money to put into i just don't know what to do if you have any ideas plz let me know
how did you mount it to the back if its not the original motor because i have one but i have a Yamaha 500 snowmobile motor and i was wondering how you put yours on?
i have an '81 odyssey...i just rebuilt the 250 it has and i'm in the process of buying an electric start for it...i wanna do something like what u did cuz i have an extra 4.3L Vortec sitting around from my blazer...i was wondering if that would work...
The gear ratio was very low with the stock chain case. You almost couldn't push the machine when it was off. WIth a claimed 105HP from the snowmobile engine, all you needed to do was aim the machine straight and give it a handfull of throttle!
i just thought i would let you know that is one bad ass machine i had one for years but i never could get the thing set up the way i wanted to be so i ended up selling it but whatching this video makes me want to go find it and buy it back
If the carbs are jetted correctly the engine should be fine. Keep track of it with a temperature gun or something though while riding it. We had a Rotax 440 originally in in and there were no over heating problems.
ok ive just put a 440 john deere snowmobile engine on a honda odyssey but havent finished the gas tank and throttle cable i was wondering if you had any problems with over heating because its a snowmobile motor
well ya if u go n e faster with this thing its gonna get squirlie i like the low gears and id like to see it at glamis at the hill with some paddles running against the rhinos up the hill
Exactly, to us the hole shot was more important, especially for the short drag racing we entered it into. With no suspension in the back and little in the front, it would destroy your body in no time in the dunes.
I wanted to eliminate the chaincase but with the snowmobile clutches there needed to be a transfer from belt to chain somewhere. Also, the owner of the machine didn't want to!
The bottom end is where the power is used. The chaincase was set for low end mostly because the factory engine was something like 30hp. HP isn't always about speed!
It really isn't that fast, we GPS the macine once and in 100 yards it was up to 59mph. I believe that's all it had because the secondary clutch wasn't shifting like it should.
U gotta make this avalible on mobile devices I cant watch it on my phone.

We did all the work to the machine. Depending on the cost and availibility of the piston and rings, along with the rest of the top end parts, you might be better off with an engine swap. There's a bit of fabricating that needs to be done to do this though. I'd weight out the two options before doing anything.

how much you want for it, i live in pa, and growing up me and my dad restoresd a fl250 and nothing was stock, everything was bigger better and it was fucking fast, we sold it though, and if you know were to find anymore odessy let me know

The FL250's are cheap and fun, but the serious ones are the FL350 and the Pilot. Full A-arms in front and actual suspension in the rear. Hoping to sell me FL250 to get one. :)

how did you mount it to the back if its not the original motor because i have one but i have a Yamaha 500 snowmobile motor and i was wondering how you put yours on?
dgkplanb7 3 years ago
We had to build a pedestal type frame to mount the engine on. The exhaust went under the engine. Send me your e-mail and I can send you pictures.

That I would like to see!! I don't think there's ehough space for it without lengething the wheel base. What did you have in mind for a transmission?

how do you make it pop a wheely
alpal781 3 years ago
The gear ratio was very low with the stock chain case. You almost couldn't push the machine when it was off. WIth a claimed 105HP from the snowmobile engine, all you needed to do was aim the machine straight and give it a handfull of throttle!

i just thought i would let you know that is one bad ass machine i had one for years but i never could get the thing set up the way i wanted to be so i ended up selling it but whatching this video makes me want to go find it and buy it back

Wide open! Looks like most of the people who ride this machine get a suprise visit from the shite-weasel.

its air cooled so thanks like i said i havent run it yet but i was sure if it was going to be a problem
mthsmouse 3 years ago
If the carbs are jetted correctly the engine should be fine. Keep track of it with a temperature gun or something though while riding it. We had a Rotax 440 originally in in and there were no over heating problems.
Burnem79 3 years ago
Air or liquid cooled? If air cooled mount small car battery and run turbo fans on head and put scoops to funnel air while riding.

well ya if u go n e faster with this thing its gonna get squirlie i like the low gears and id like to see it at glamis at the hill with some paddles running against the rhinos up the hill

Exactly, to us the hole shot was more important, especially for the short drag racing we entered it into. With no suspension in the back and little in the front, it would destroy your body in no time in the dunes.

hey how much you askin ?

Sorry, sold. Check out alicecoop video response above, they bought it.

ok a gay gear ratio for that power n end result top speed ?
oldboi1 3 years ago
I wanted to eliminate the chaincase but with the snowmobile clutches there needed to be a transfer from belt to chain somewhere. Also, the owner of the machine didn't want to!

It is Powerman 5000 - Bombshell.
Burnem79 3 years ago
ooo its a fair chunk of power for onli 59 if ya get me
oldboi1 3 years ago
The bottom end is where the power is used. The chaincase was set for low end mostly because the factory engine was something like 30hp. HP isn't always about speed!
Burnem79 3 years ago
didnt looks that fast wen he came past givin it some
oldboi1 3 years ago
It really isn't that fast, we GPS the macine once and in 100 yards it was up to 59mph. I believe that's all it had because the secondary clutch wasn't shifting like it should.

is that a 250 frame? rad motor! '_'
