the 400cc is going to be taller anyway so you have to cut the bottom support off the hawk and weld the bottom plate from the 400cc to the rear swingarm and the front to the bottom neck of the hawk if it;s still too tall your going to have to cut the two top supports on the hawk and reweld them when you install the 400cc. make sure the bottom 400cc plate is properly welded to the rear swingarm to allow the mono shock to move with the engine and frame.
