Arctic Cat Puma 793 Snowmobile (1970)

The 1970 Arctic Cat Puma 793 was a remarkable snowmobile, known for its powerful engine and innovative chassis design for its time. Powered by a 793cc Hirth triple engine, it was a true "musclesled" of its era. This model marked a turning point by introducing Arctic Cat's first "short" chassis, designed for enhanced maneuverability. In 1970, the Puma lineup offered several engine options, including the Puma 793 with its Hirth triple engine, as well as versions like the Puma 399 EXT, the Puma 440 (with Hirth or Sachs engines), and the Puma 634. Other displacements (292, 340, 760) were also available, showcasing the series' diversity. The "short" chassis, featuring a 17 x 103.5-inch track, represented a major evolution from Panther models, aiming for more agile handling. The 793cc Hirth triple engine had already proven itself in Panther "mod sleds" the previous year. Limited-run factory race sleds with "EXT-spec engines" were also produced, foreshadowing the 1971 EXT lineup. Q : How can I ensure parts fit my 1970 Arctic Cat Puma 793?
