Mainly flat, slightly hilly terrain off-road and flat street driven
2 seater "Big Thunder" Thunder Kart (not sure of weight)
16" Rear wheels
MaxTorque Torque Converter
Open aftermarket exhaust (steel pipe basically), GPS intake kit w/ .038 main jet
Driver weight 200 lbs. - 300 lbs. max (with combination of riders)
I'm not certain of the current sprockets tooth count, but best guesstimate is 10T jackshaft and 60T axle.
My questions are:
1) Is that setup going to burn up my engine/TC or should I change the ratio? (6:1 currently)
2) If ratio change is recommended, which sprocket and to what size?
3) Would changing the TC spring from factory "2" be beneficial?
I'd like it to run 35-45 mph but not take 5 minutes getting there and at the same time not wreck my engine, if that's a possible combination.
Also, what series would a MaxTorque Converter be considered or comparable to, and what HP rating is the max for it? I've had no luck finding that info out.
