yeah
you can do this with the stock frames, all you have to do is get some different motor mounts rigged up so the kx motor fitsbut make sure the mounts are strong so the motor doesn't move. i did this with a kx and a cr80 and the mounts weren't strong enough and the whole motor moved about an inch and a half and the chain kept falling off.
