    Peerless 700 Build? Need Help!

    Wow... I believe that you were correct Sir. - Off-road kart with big knobby tires. - What's the best way to determine the final (high gear) drive ratio of my 700? Just ordered this... >$10, figured why not.

    Peerless 700 Build? Need Help!

    Considering using a Peerless 700 5-speed w/ reverse that I have laying around to give my kart project more gearing options and (most importantly) reverse. I've done the research on race-prepping these transmissions. I've searched around on this forum and read every other Peerless thread I...

    Predator 13 HP (420cc) Engine Choices?

    Dang, you beat me to it, I was going to stop at HF today after work... although I did call HF's "tech support" hotline the other day. They had no idea of the differences and simply stated that the three models are all the same, just coming from different suppliers from around the company. It...

    Predator 13 HP (420cc) Engine Choices?

    Why do you say that? Less EPA/Carb restrictions = increased performance?

    Predator 13 HP (420cc) Engine Choices?

    So is the general consensus that I should get this one since it might be a fuel pump?

    Predator 13 HP (420cc) Engine Choices?

    Weird, because in the product description for that specific one it states: "Item for sale outside California only – please refer to item for California compliant model." In other words, that isn't the California-compliant model.

    Predator 13 HP (420cc) Engine Choices?

    So its just an EPA thing?

    Predator 13 HP (420cc) Engine Choices?

    That would be excellent if that is the case - I might relocate the fuel tank so gravity feeding would no longer be an option. Still, I wonder why a fuel pump would be necessary on an unmodified engine since the fuel tank is on top.

    Predator 13 HP (420cc) Engine Choices?

    I'm looking to buy one of the 13hp/420cc Predator engines from Harbor Freight, but they have three separate item #'s listed on their website. I called HF tech support and they stated that they are all identical except that they come from different suppliers/vendors. I'm assuming that I...

    Ty-Rail Manufacturer?

    Frame isn't bent, just a weird picture angle. I had the same question myself. Of course that will be verified if I go take a look at it.

    Ty-Rail Manufacturer?

    Anyone know who manufactures Ty Rail go-karts? I'm trying to find out more information about this go-kart as I might buy it: http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/mcy/4038567382.html I'm not even sure if its technically a go-kart, dune buggy, or "sand buggy". Googling "Ty Rail" isn't coming up...

    Ken-Bar 611 build ideas

    All the more reason it needs more cleaning! The first time I took off my carb I looked ALL over it and couldn't find any identification marks whatsoever. It wasn't until I REALLY cleaned it that I finally found a model number. To be absolutely crystal clear, keep cleaning until it looks like...

    What's the make/model of your carb?

    Ken-Bar 611 build ideas

    That carb doesn't look clean enough. Check out the pics of mine in the lemon juice thread. You really need to get a carb rebuild kit from ebay (has all the gaskets/parts needed), remove every single part on your carb that can come off, and boil it again. Then re-assemble with the new parts...
