Default Can you swap a GS 300 motor for a 400/430 motor

I have a GS 300 and was wondering if I could swap the motor for GS 400/430. If so what is involved in the swap? Do I have to change the computer and transmission? I tried googling this, but nothing came up. Has anyone anyone ever done this?

Never mind. I found the answer. I guess it isn't worth it. I didn't know you had to change the E-shift and tranny.

If you're looking for more power, you'd be better off turbocharging your GS3.
