    Arctic Cat Snowmobile Engine - 2021-2022 Blast 397cc EFI 65hp@????rpm

    Thank you for researching & investigation work you have been doing on this Artic Cat/Yamaha sled engine. Looks like there may be a few items to address, but this is an amazing engine and it may become a very nice candidate for homebuilders in the future. This sport would not be what it is...

    YAMAHA C-TEC2 4000, 65 HP, 50 lbs

    Anyone find more information on this Cat engine? I've found several sled videos on the A.C. Blast and the Yamaha SX Venom, but none that discuss the engine with much detail. Yamaha's website states it has "Batteryless Fuel Injection", but also has electric start. I'm assuming the sled has a...

    YAMAHA C-TEC2 4000, 65 HP, 50 lbs

    While doing some research on F.I. 2-strokes, that engine caught my attention also. (I believe the same engine in the 2021 Yamaha SXVenom) Looks promising, but will be a while before we see used sleds for a donor though. Supposedly, it's 1/2 of this engine detailed on Y.T.

    OK which one of us did this?

    It was Gretchen Dimwhitmer's husband...he said it was ok because his wife is the governor. (he tried to use his wife's influence while attempting to have their boat put in the water at their cottage near Traverse City during her lockdown)

    $10 gallon Avgas

    E100 has roughly 2/3 the BTU/Gal as gasoline so we'd be making more pit stops, but could be an option.
