I got the pressure washer pulled from the motor this afternoon.....not tapered! :-) YAY! "What type of kart are you planning to build anyway?" At this point....I just wanting something for the local rural street to run around on....something with some HP I hope with this GX340

Oh my....I'm thinking I'll keep it simple for the first build! The idea sounds interesting, but I want to try and just figure out the size of a sprocket or chain at this point (and I haven't even delved into steering geometry yet)... Thank you Big-D ---------- Post added at 07:47 PM ----------...

Oh Man.....I'll have to find out more about that motor! I sure hope I didn't spend $226 for the whole set-up and not be able to use it for what I wanted. If so.....I'll still be moving forward with this project...just different power.

Hi All, I want to give a shot at making my first go-kart. Found the motor (Pictures attached) It's a Brigs & Stratton 16hp two cyl attached to a Pincor Alternator 1970's era. Advice and input always welcome and appreciated! I have a Lincoln 110v wire feed welder.....not too bad at using it...

Hi All, New guy here.....researching information for a project building a go-kart with my son. We had a blast over the 4th of July this year at a friends with his two carts.....and I can build one of these....just going to make sure I'm not "reinventing the wheel" in my first attempt! Thanks...
