ok ive heard of the auto x and would like to build my daughter one so heres a couple ? how hard is the mods or will it fit right in i will be using a 85 model 200 x so what year 200 do i use and is it 200 s m or what what all parts from the 200 x do you use and what all parts do you use from the 200 s or m

You just need the bottom end from a 200 auto or you can drop in the whole engine. 200S would be easiest since the electric start engines need the frame notches for the starter.

You can also use the atc 185 engine from any year. You have to use the 200x motor mounts, and the 200x intake manifold connecting the carb to the motor (different angle). i have done this auto x converesion many times, and it works great if you ask me. plenty of fun for a beginer, or if your too lazy to use the clutch. the other thing is the rear brake lever, I have eheard you can bend the 185/200s lever to make it fit, but I never tried.(because the 200x brake lever mounts the the 200x case)

Hope this helps. GOOD LUCK. ------------ Jon.

do you use the wires off the 2oo x or do you have to use the 200 s wires system

I done a few auto x's and almost always used the 200x wiring 100% of the way ( stator, cdi, ect ).

The brake pedals are a pain to fabricate if you don't have the tools. A 185s / 200s brake pedal will need drilled ( and honed IMO ) to 3/4" and then it needs bent to fit properly.
