If I remove the governor, I'd rather have the right internal parts so as not to blow it up. For the 18 hp, it's hard to find aftermarket performance parts for the kohler magnum... If anyone knows of places, let me know... For the 5 hp, i am planning to do a build on the spare engine maybe after...

I have a 5 hp B&S that's stock and not really impressed by it. I have spare that I'm planning to build up I the future and have a 18hp kohler that I'm putting in another project, I'll let you know when I get it running the difference between the two if I remember. Sent from my iPhone using...

As for the power, we'll see, I rode my 5 hp dingo and did a speed test and it maxes out at about 24mph with everything stock and one pavement going with slight downward slope and all. I have a spare engine for that one to build up later. But for this, I have access to a gixer 600cc motor for...

I have it on it's back now and doing a closer look at it. Looks like it needs new spindles and tie rods, it seems a bolt is missing from one of the spindles... They are also to keys for one of the rear wheels and the sprocket missing and one of the rear bearings is shot... seals are of on it and...

Ya, it's a bit cluttered, it's parents garage and I did most of the cluttering since I moved back to the east coast. That's another motivation for getting it done, I keep getting reminded how I need to clean the garage from my stuff. I think this one is a manco, but sure of the model. The plan...

I just got done restoring my 20 year old manco dingo 5hp this past week, it's a single seater and while restoring it I wanted my kids and my nieces and nephews to enjoy as well. When I was 14, I broke 2 ribs on my dingo so I was concerned about the kids riding by themselves, the oldest is 12...

From anything that will easily bolt up to 1" output shaft motor. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Like a 6speed from a pit bike or auto cross or even a road bike (motorcycle), or even a shifter box from a shifter kart if it can be used with other engines. I have a kohler magnum 18 with a 2 seater kart that i was thinking either a 40 series torq verter or if I could a shifter box. Sent from...

thanks for all the feedback... I ended up getting the b&s working and cleaned up most of the rust on the frame and need to weld the roll bar and put it back together... I have another project kart that I picked up which is a 2 seater with a kohler magnum 18 (18hp). The previous owner started but...

can you put another engine up to a bike shifter?

where did you get the fuel tank from?

Bought a new coil and pull start rope, the coil came with the wires for the switch which was nice. Installed the parts and still no start, got more investigating to do but things are moving slow because I'm also working on my car which takes higher priority. But I picked up 2 B&S 5hp motors at...

I was also hoping the 13hp would just drop in and just mod the motor.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's a question of if I want to go all our or not. But seeing that dingo wheelie, your daughter looks scared and in reality, I'm not sure I want my dingo to wheelie, spin wheels yes, possibly flip it self onto me no. I'm probably the only one that's gonna ride it, I'm 33 and had it since I was...
