Welcome to the forum. They are both good platforms rev and fire-cat. 800 rev is a nice combo for sure.

Depending on your rev motor that you had, the f-7 should be faster. F-7's are hot. Good quick sleds

as far as sno-pro or not. If it was a sno-pro it should have clickers and a knob. than yeah its a sno-pro. any f-7 is a good platform to start with

You just need to make sure it isn't beat and unmaintained.

Do a compression test, if the top end has never been freshened it's probably due.

clickers i mean a separate housing that has extra fluid and a knob on it. Like this

It's ready if it hasnt already been done! Again do a compression test@WOT! Use that fact as a purcasing tool! Get the price down atleast a coupla hundred! And really thats about all a top end is!
