SPREE MOTOR SWAP

Can someone please tell me what is the biggest motor that will bolt into my spree?
Im sure this question has come up a lot but im dyslexic which means it very hard for me to read. It would take me all day to look it up.
I tweaked my motor and got more speed but I guess the bottom end couldn't handle it, so now I want a motor that's more popular and has some aftermarket support :twisted:.
Thanks in advance for any help.

p.s my motor blew at 4607 miles. Is that about average?

Thanks for the help! Is the elite 50 a 2 or 4 stroke and does it have a CVT trans?

It's a 2 stoke, not sure about the trans though.
