So the carb was completely shot so I ended up buying a new used engine, a 8hp briggs and stratton industrial engine. I already have the 20 series driven on the kart but no driver. I think I need a 20 series symmetric driver. The only problem is that the engine I have has a threaded shaft and...

Hey all, I need help deciding whether to use a 10 or 18 hp engine on my go kart? What are some pros and cons of both? Thanks in advance, Sam
