Latest Update: I spent the day yesterday with my son replacing the engine and torque converter. This was good learning experience for him. I decided to get a new TC because I just like new things :) With some small adjustments and tweaks we changed engine, torque converter, fixed wheel...

Thanks for the info. I completely agree that I should have looked for videos, like previous posts have said. So I apologize for asking the questions when the answers are actually a click away. I never realized how many go kart videos there are. I mostly wasn’t sure I was going to find a video...

Well, the kart is up on jacks and the new engine is scheduled for delivery tomorrow! So instead of just taking things apart and hoping they go back together the same way with the new engine, I will take a step back and ask you friendly folks for your guidance. You can see what I have from the...

I ordered it online from Harbor Freight. It appears I ordered the model WITHOUT the Hemi. The version without the Hemi is on sale $20 off. qtband said it does not make a difference in my case for what I am using it for. So I am assuming it is not worth changing my order for the other model...

I have a HF in the same city as me :) I just went to the website and it has $20 coupon so its on sale for $99. Looks like $6.99 for shipping. I probably could get it shipped to the store and pick up for free, but having delivered home I think is worth the $7 and of course tax, out the door...

Thanks for all the suggestions. As it was mentioned, after I searched the engine model number, I started finding a whole lot of information for parts for my engine. I was considering just getting replacement parts, but the individual costs are super high. I think I seen my gas tank for +$100...

I appreciate all the feedback! I think I like the idea of plug and play by getting a new engine. - I can get a little more HP - Everything will be clean and new - I need a new tank anyhow. The mounting bracket is integrated/welded to the bottom side of the tank so not sure if I can even get a...

I have a Ken-Bar Streaker D810 kart. I only know that because of the stickers :) I am not a mechanic or engine person by any means, but I have dealt with plenty of lawn mowers, snowblowers, riding lawn mower, chainsaws and even a go kart when I was a kid. I have done many basic things as far as...
