Answer
Hello Dusty,

 Glad you had good luck with the 700. As for horsepower on the ZRT, The 1996 model put out 120.2 HP and the 1997's put out 118. So basically, yes the '96 model has it's differences, and seems to be a somewhat more spunky than other ZRT machines. It is possible to draw 132.6 HP from that sled with a Power Breather and D&D pipes plus possible re-jetting. This was actually done on a '96 ZRT, and that was the dyno-testing results. Unfortunately, Arctic Cat does not provide an online manual for their sleds, as does Polaris. Your best bet would be to pick up a manual from www.denniskirk.com , part # 360309 . Hope this helps you, let me know if you have any other questions. Good luck with the sled! --Arcticatman
