Parts Swapable?

Recommended Posts

I was just wondering if motor parts from a '72 Panther and a '77 Jag are interchangable? Anyone know?

Thanks Arvey. The appear to be the same motors. Suzuki 339 cc. The clutches look different. On the 72 it's fan cooled and the 77 is air.

I'll get to operate and see what I can slap together!

When you get it done, get someone to videotape you trying it out, for posterity( or is that evidence ), lol.

Hey Roger.

Almost all the parts on those two sleds should be inter-changable they didn't change to many things in those years and if not they can usually be refabricated to fit depending on the parts you need.I'm pretty sure you could do a complete engine swap from free air to fan cooled from what I remember.As for the clutches on your motors one might be stock and the other might be after market I know on the mid to late 80's models lots of guys used polaris clutches.
