1994 Vmax 600 Seized Crank

[Dave09882]

My 600 engine crank is seized(got the sled that way). I am wondering if the bottom end off of a 1997 phaser 500 twin will work. From what I found online it looks like the cranks should be the same with the phaser just being the updated version

The phazer crank is totally different and will not work. An 87-93 Exciter or 94-96 vmax 500/ 600 crank is what you need.

So can I use the entire bottom end off an exciter or is just the crank the same

Not really. The cylinder studs are different and the 600 cylinders use alignment dowles around the studs. It would be easier to swap the crank in your existing cases.
