Nice Job, Nick! Ours turned out pretty well. Kids got to ride, I got to ride, and had a iPod playing AcDc through a speaker for a soundtrack. It was pretty awesome. The rotors are powered by scavenged power wheels motors...

Getting closer. Got the paint on and motors turning the rotors! Still some details to go. Sorry for the crappy pic. Bill

bump - think this could work? Or maybe need to add a torque converter?

Yes firemanjim, I want to use the mower's original engine and transaxle, but switch to a go kart throttle, and not have to use a clutch when starting off -i.e. just "gas and go", so to speak, like a go kart. I was thinking I could add a centrifugal clutch between the engine and transmission to...

I have a 12hp vertical shaft Craftsman mower with the standard mower transmission. I want to put this combo into a little bigger frame and add some seats sort of like a golf cart/gator/buggy. I would want to drive it by linking the engine and tranny with a clutch, so you drive with the gas...

Howdy folks, first post. The Sevtec hovercraft Scout model can use an engine this size, and you can buy plans. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLRKeNWyUGo another is Universal Hovercraft. I like this prototype of a WIG craft: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SoyFWgZGB0 Enjoy! Bill
