So i have a 1M

Yeah, yours is named a "Mountain Cat" I believe. Awesome lookin hood!:beer;

Idcatman3 (my son) had a good start but maybe I can add a little more clarity to the situation. Basically all the AWS V bulkheads from 98 on up are the same except for the motor mount locations and the mounting position of the chaincase and jackshaft. Even the fan Panther, Puma and Z were the same except for the front heat exchanger. Up to 2000 the ZRs, ZLs, mountain sleds and the fan models were all the same. In 2001 the mountain sleds got the chaincase lowered about 3/8". The 1Ms have it lowered about another 1" or so. The 1M bulkhead is no lighter than any other AWS V. All the weight difference is in the seat and suspension parts. There are at least five different plastic designs that will all fit on that same bulkhead. (1) 97- 98 Puma, (2) ZR 2, (3) ZR 3, (4) ZRT and T Cat, and (5 I think) the turbo 660. Hope this helps.

Idacatman and others, Yes the T660 will fit! The other half has a 141" mod. It looks trick, But doesn't climb like a 1M! Too heavy to make it a Mtn. class. But a couple yrs ago I wanted to mount her hood on mine! Needless to say she was not game, Maybe a Mtn. fit M series will have to do!

If you want your mtn cat to be a 1m, all you have to do is get a 2003.5-the last year of the king cat with the motor mounts and coolers in it or just a roller chassis, and do a swap, thats what i did with my 2002 800 twin LE, made it a whole different sled and i found a 2005 king cat chassis almost roller for $350 with a title, which would in the end moake yours worth more, and be a rare 1000 triple, one sled i want to eventualy build. might be worth $3500 give or take.
