Pics of the beast These are the pictures I have of th engine

I kinda thought 40k might be easy to accomplish but I have never built a go kart so I don't know what to expect. How many horses do you think I will need to pull a wheelie? lol ---------- Post added at 08:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 AM ---------- ( without leaning back) lol...

This is what came up on google images. Lol https://cdn.instructables.com/FQC/TTEQ/GTQVSVQ8/FQCTTEQGTQVSVQ8.LARGE.jpg

I will post pics in a couple of hours. The engine normally operated at 3600rpm so I don't want to go to far past that. I would be very happy if my go kart went 40kmh but it's not doing that without a few upgrades I think. ---------- Post added at 07:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:57...

Thanks for all the input and surprisingly quick responses. I did not think this would be easy but hopefully I can do it cheaply because my budget for this project is not big. Expertise is not much of a problem (I would be lost on my own but I have someone with years of experience helping me...

Does any body have any ideas on how to make the carb work under the pressure? (Other than building a box around it)

Hello everyone, I am new to the world of go karts and engine mechanics and am currently building my first go kart. I have a 205cc 1953 6.2 hp Wisconsin AKN I'm rebuilding to put in it. But I would like more power for my kart because my friend is building a go kart also with a 10hp Koehler and I...
