The Exciter is a 440 cc. The phazer is larger 485 cc, and it a taller engine, so you'll need more room to fit into your application. If that is a concern. The 300 cc Enticer is a good engine also, don't what is available for mods. All these engines are fan cooled and twin cylinder.
If you would like a single cylinder fan cooled, the 292cc Yamaha is a very good engine. Find a latter year one (74-?) with the reed valves. Be prepared to spend some good money, highly prized by the single cylinder racers.
Lot's of good hop ups for the exciter and phazer, larger and twin carbs, pipes, port work, clutching, etc. There is alot information for these engines out there.
As you can see I'm a Vintage Yamaha snowmobile fan.
