2019 - Yerf Doge

This is probably a retarded question but would a 5-3.5hp fly wheel work on an 8 hp engine?

Its a timing pun because we are speaking about flywheels dont let it go over your head.

Probably not. But I would highly advise revising your question. Unless done in the proper context (notably engine ignition timing), people may take offense to the choice wording.

See the problem?

 

[Kartorbust]

If I recall properly, the 3hp and 5hp engine flywheels are commonly swapped around. However I havent found anything pretaining to using those on an 8hp engine.

I was making that same joke.

 

[Panhead5496]

Not really a funny joke man. I personally am not offended by the "retarded" part, but someone could take a lot of offense to it.

Some new neigbor gave me a cool helmet and a carbon fibre exhaust. man getting parts is exhausting.

 

[Budget GoKart]

Should i put the exhaust like rgb's manco deuce at an angle upwards or below the the rear bit of the frame.

 

[JTSpeedDemon]

I think below would look better.

 

[Budget GoKart]

Well ill mock it up when i do the swap

 

[Budget GoKart]

Still not 100% on the exhaust but when it comes time ill ask my grandpa. and i have the 8hp now but not sure on 14t clutch because 10t wont fit.

Update 8!

Changed my mind on the briggs swap now im putting a 50$ 420cc subarubaru robin on it. but now i need to save up another 25$ which thats probaly coming from mowing my neigbors yard. Also the rear subframe of the yerfdoge cracked right through a gusset and twisted, and made the chain hit the clutch so i have to fix that. I already have 25$ and im tryna buy a cheap tc from china.

Wow, a lot of engine choice changes.
That Subie should be very smooth(if it runs well ), but make sure it doesn't need any major parts. Subie parts are ridonkulously expensive.
Git that frame fixed!

 

[Budget GoKart]

I was watching some stuff online and i have to remove the rear sub to make engine fit anyway also it runs super smooth just needs a battery

 

[landuse]

I suggest just taking one engine choice and actually making it work so that you can ride the kart. If you keep on changing your mind you are never going to get the thing going.

Each time you change your mind there is extra stuff you have to do to get it to work. Stop messing around and just get an engine on there

 

[Budget GoKart]

Well i cant use my 8hp cuz it doesnt fit on the yerf dog i am going for the subaru

 

[Kartorbust]

I would also look at Carroll Stream engines. They are very similar to Honda GX engines, but a lot cheaper. https://www.carrollstream.com/category-s/137.htm

 

[Budget GoKart]

Well i got a 420cc subie robin 13.5hp for 50$ thats what im putting on it just gotta go mow my neigbors yard to buy a tc

 

[JTSpeedDemon]

Interesting site there with the Carroll Stream Engines.

[Budget GoKart]
