Thanks ML, I was looking for that. The guy hasn't posted his results yet though. After reading all that it makes me think getting a 11hp with a good gear ratio will pull you to the speed I'm talking about with enough torque to still make it fun.

Results?

I tried, searched "dual engine" Not sure where either...

I've had this idea for awhile now but never knew if it would work or not. I love the idea of having a general gear (for 0-30mph) and then having an overdrive gear to pull you to 45mph. Would it be possible to mount two engines side by side and have both of them connected to the axle with...

So, I'm purchasing a kart (off-road two seater torque converter) very soon and have some go kart knowledge under my belt. I know that when engines are governed, they run at 3600rpm. Top speed and acceleration is determined on the gear ratio. A small gear ratio will accelerate quickly but have...

I think I'll go with the larger engine and a warranty. Sounds like a safer bet to me. Although I have heard that these engines tend to not break. I was looking around for new drive clutches. The kart I'm getting has a torque converter and a 150cc engine. Smells like I'll have to get a drive...

I plan to purchase a kart with a tc. My question is is the warranty worth it?

I've got some plans in the works to get a off-road kart with lots of power (10-15hp) and I have became stumped by a recent realization. I have seen that many people go with Honda clone Predator engines from Harbor Freight. Having bought a clone 7 years back for an older project (when they were...

Well when you live around some houses and need to be quiet-ish around them, but like the power and sound of an open exhaust, it's pretty appealing.

Nope, but we had completely settled on it...I'm out of town until a week from now :(

^this. It turns out the dudebro who was selling the steal-of-a-kart left for work and his so-called "wife" sold it. I even planned with him for $50 off and a deposit. NUTS. Starting my search again...

It would be very cool to be able to cut sound while driving outside of my neighborhood and then let loose when I get to dirt roads...

I looked at the axle sprocket part and it looks like a solid sprocket, not the split type. Are they difficult to switch out? http://www.nrracing.com/product-p/stage1hopup.htm this is the kit I was going to purchase Edit: Looked into it and saw that I can switch out the axle sprocket easily. I...

I plan to change gear ratio to 6:1 once I get new engine and hop up kit from nrracing.com

Those butterfly valves in cars where you flip a switch and the valve directs exhaust flow away from muffler and into a straight pipe. Has anybody done this?

Why did you say that buckwheat? I suppose there is a marked difference between need and want :wai:

I really need advice about which engine to go with, I want to put a header on there and a new intake. What is the next cheap engine hop up, and which engine will be easier to find parts for?

Weird, so it probably accelerates very quickly? What is the easiest way to change ratio? Like which gear to switch out, jackshaft or axle?

Also, is this an awesome buy for $425 or what?!

I am returning to the beautiful world of Go Karts with much newfound cash, but obviously wanting bang for buck. The kart comes with a 6.5hp Kohler engine. For the longest time I had my mind set on a brand new Honda GX390 (http://fayar.craigslist.org/for/3811329971.html if you're interested) for...
