I know for sure everything is the right size, there is no chain tensioner due to it being a vintage race kart, and it has been run but not for too long, maybe 20 minutes total up on a jackstand to tune the carb. it is a cheap amazon chain so that might have something to do with it. i'll look...

Hey guys Ive been back at working on my kart, and ive been having issues with the chain. i'll get the chain to the right tension, and then to test it i'll push it up an down the driveway a few times. after doing this, the chain now is super loose and fell off at one point. its brand new...

By the way, i saw on your youtube channel you recently sold a Mac 49 MC. i have one myself on my GK800, and im wondering what carb you have on yours. i have a walbro sdc on mine currently, but tillotsons seem like a better option.

I've heard of these! pricing-wise, how much are they?

the one thing thats throwing me off is the part of the rear subframe that extends from the axle to the very back of the kart, its the only differing factor to the dart. could be modified though

Hey yall, I was looking on FB, and stumbled across what i belive is a Rupp Dart Kart, although im not sure. would love some more info before i consider purchasing. pics: link to fb post...

Good to know, thanks.

The current setup + the bracket welded in for the disc setup

Hey guys, As some of you may know at this point, i am rebuilding a '60 Go Kart 800 with a Mac MC-49 2 stroke on it. the brakes on it are currently the original drums, which work great and deliver great performance, but upon looking on Azusa's site, they not only sell an identical drum assembly...

Thats awesome! i have a MC-49 on my '60 Go Kart 800 that im in the middle of rebuilding (again). its got a vacuum leak somewhere and its getting too much air, no matter how rich it runs.

Its a vintage racing motor from the 60's, a quite desirable little thing, running or not.

yeah, thats what i thought too. i've seen restored examples of my Mac MC49 go for upwards of $2k.

I found a vintage west bend on eBay for $450, and I’m wondering if it’s a good deal. It turns over, doesn’t appear to run, but overall seems like a solid motor. I would love some more info https://www.ebay.com/itm/325339897643

What carb is the scoop for? and what motor does the muffler fit?

Comet Kart sales has a bunch of stuff on their site aswell. i've used them in the past, great service.

A bit of an update… I’m in the middle of (another) minor engine rebuild on my Mac MC49, so this idea has been postponed. In the process as well, I was able to find another vintage go kart for sale for a price I can barely pass up, although it doesn’t have a motor. It has some weird stuff welded...

After years of on and off work, im proud to announce that my early 1960's Go Kart 800 project is finally coming to a close. Built by Art Ingels and Duffy Livingstone out of the Go Kart Manufacturing Co. in Azusa, CA, i have hardly found anything else like it on the internet. Working on this was...

Since my vintage Go Kart 800 'restoration' is almost done (more to come on that shortly), i have been searching for a new project kart for a budget build, and i think i have come across the perfect candidate... that is if i can figure out what it is. i know its a manco (as the seller stated)...

I haven’t tried heat yet, how do you think I should go about doing that? My last resort is cutting it, and I plan on getting a wheel puller in the next few days.

I have actually tried the 2x4 method and it did not work. It doesn’t help that the set screws are not only seized, but they are stripped too.
