Default Newbie to Go Kart

I just purchased a manco 6.5hp 169cc 2 seater go kart for my kids. I'm wanting to hook up an electric start to it or purchase a reasonable motor with the electric start included. I don't know what exactly I need to do this. I'm very good with my hands (mechanically) just not too familiar with the "small engine" world. Does anyone know any diagrams, schematics or step by step instructions on how to hook up an electric starter and all I would need to complete the job? Also, after it's all said and done, what's the average all the mod's would cost to do this? Thank you very much in advance...

This thread would be better off in the engines section of the forum. We're always glad to help, but this post will get more attention if you move it.

I am also new to the forum world. How would I move my posting to the "engines" forum?
