What other Rotax Engines are compatible with 582

[Turbo_Boss]

Hey Guys,

Do anybody knows what other Ski-Doo/Sea-Doo Rotax engines & parts are compatible with the Rotax 582.

The thing is that a 582 is exactly the same engine to a 5xx or 6xx that you find in a Ski-Doo or Sea-Doo

The only diference is that the 582 use 2 spark plug for cylinder and it use 2 magnetos BUT I "think" thats are the only diferences.

For example a Crankshaft for a Sea-Doo 587 including all new main and wrist-pin bearings, inner seals and rods. Trued & welded to better than OEM specifications is available for U$195.00 and the same part for a 582 is around U$1,000.oo

Do any body has a cross reference of what parts we can use?

THX,

Isaac

I thought of the same thing. The problem is that these are aftermarket parts (i.e. Not genuine Rotax) even though the quality is awesome (they build competition cranks for professional teams - and in the US big money is lost if they're engine goes. Check www.hotrods.com).

So even if you fit them an AP can't sign the engine out because it has been modified. The only way will be to "re-label" the engine as a "Rattex" or something else, write your own maintenance & owner manuals, do the 40hrs test flying and other CA requirements.
