    Are the ignitions on 86 400s interchangeable? I have a 400xc with a Motoplat whose bottom end is experiencing woes and a WR 400 that is doing alright but the wires on the SEM are looking like they may disintegrate at any moment. I’d like to take the WR motor and put it in the XC frame, which has pretty much everything already overhauled and I would also like to use the Motoplat, which was recently rebuilt by Vance. Any reason this won’t work?
