I be doing it

Nothing terribly wrong with GPS, but they just sell the same stuff as others with an inflated price tag. The cost of all their advertising / youtube sponsorships comes from your pocket, if you buy from them. I miss the early days of youtube, where things where uploaded for fun , not just for...

Well the camshaft you installed reduces low end torque. It might just need steeper gearing to take advantage of the increased power at high rpms, and/or higher engagement speed of the clutch, think 3k stall instead of factory 2200rpm. What have you done with the carb? GPS advises at least...

I would ask for a copy of the invoice / receipt for parts purchased. Just so you know what ya got. If the governor, airbox, and muffler are still in place, you were likely sold a bone stock motor Was the oil ever changed? Maybe start there

About time you posted a pic! Congrats, nice fleet!

Id start by reading this thread https://www.diygokarts.com/community/threads/go-kart-steering-very-heavy-hard-to-turn.46986/#post-586290 But that's what makes it a go kart, and more importantly fun!

I don't think that's what snaker was trying to convey , but you got it right! Thats what he was trying to go for, But you already covered it, so yup, that would be your limitation!

I would start out by figuring out what the kart is, and what was the factory motor. Looks like some prior welding / mods were done to the frame. Just because it had the sled engine bolted to it does not mean it worked right. Then if nothing else, break out the sharpie, spin the input and...

Yeah, increase leverage at the sacrifice of steering angle. You can only do so much without a rack. It's probably gonna be fine once it's rolling, just as I said check it over for binding. Make sure to lubricate the joints , and a grease zerk on the bushings won't hurt ( sorry im a...

If nothing is binding you simply need more leverage. That will reduce steering angle. That's where the rack and pinion allows both I've shortened rack and pinions before, and extending to any size needed shouldn't be much more difficult. Cut, weld , zip tie boot , done. Then fabricate...

Just got a throttle cable on it and went for a rip. Needs a bigger main jet than 135 but oh my she hauls. Pulls wheelies from stop to 20+ mph , has the torque to push snow. Should really boogie after some carb work. And very smooth, no vibration in the handles. And this motor has the balance...

Hemi/ true clone is what you need. Do you have a billet connecting rod as well?

Homemade junk with a hopped up gx270 9hp/ 40 series

Please tell me your not trying to mount a 40 series on a tav2 backplate or something similar. Anyways here ya go. Plus something else you will need.

This is a proper death trap 10/10 well done, would send

Are you referring to me? lol. But yes I have done that. If you got nothing to lose, it's worth a shot , right? Worked for me. Anyway, why not just swap the crank? 30min job under $30...

Welcome! So to clarify , you only had issues after tweaking on things? What did you want to achieve? Can you post a few photos of the linkage, and/or where you were modifying it? Help us help you! Also most bike mechanics will struggle to fix a lawn mower, or just don't care to. Different...

Just my hands. Set the bit in position, and slid the head around on the table layer by layer.

L O O P Over 3ft of pipe , should be just right.

Thanks, yeah I started with the 100 then will finish with the 150. If I was running a thin steel or copper gasket I would go finer, but with the thick graphite gaskets, having a bit of texture seems to give the gasket something to bite into, if that makes sense. If anyone tries this at home...
