^ there's always something i want to get until i add the total.
i was told the parts i need for it are cheaper than i thought, so lets see.

and plus i don't know if a torque converter could handle all the power i will be giving it.

Come onnn camshafttt!
its in town...but where.

gx390 carb works great. Just needs bigger intake/exhaust valve port-match.

should add it NEEDS to be ground a bit off of the side or oil will spray out of the valve cover.

Works great..took the kart as fast as the stock camshaft would allow..now ready to install the custom grind and 26 pound springs which should be here sometime today.

i will try it without the timing key first.

only thing i'm not used to on the 390 carb is i have to PULL the accelerator rod towards the front instead of other way around.

Whoo YeaHhh haha. That guy tried to PAFR. 2 212engine blocks on nitrous. Too bad it doesn't say if he's on a stock cam or not. If it wasn't stock i'd put an outrageous monster cam on there.

So i finally decided to hook up a digital Speedometer/Odometer/ CALORIE COUNTER lol

So if you want to know how many calories a 150 pound person or even a 400pounder would burn in 1 mile while running 45mph i could tell you.


i'm waiting on the gorilla glue to dry for the magnet so i can see how fast these 18lb springs and 4:1 ratio have been taking me.

How fast is not fast enough for FreeRunner?
Stay tuned to find out. (within 48 hours)

Ok.... (Hold on Sid.... I want to see what he comes up with... Then you eloquently inform him of his mistake....)

I'll take you up on your offer of useless knowlage... How many calories could a 400# person traveling 45kph in 1km. burn....

Oh please show your work....

Well i couldn't tell now but i could tell you after i run the kart. Let's see how close we get if he wants to I'll just be over here cheating with my calculating machine.

With no load i had the the drivewheel going OVER 100mph.

---------- Post added at 05:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:06 PM ----------

and i'm surprised gorilla glue is that strong.
engine seems to be running a lot better than the past 2 days for some reason, i guess cause of the heat idk.

---------- Post added at 05:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:06 PM ----------

had it legit 50 under load at mid RPM. stock cam. i'm not sure i'll even need this new cam.

---------- Post added at 05:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:23 PM ----------

it likes to go 20mph at idle with load. 60 with no load.
43-ish at mid throttle with load and about 80 with no load.
i havent been faster cause i've only been on dirty grass so far all it will do is spin spin spin past mid throttle with absolutely zero further traction.

---------- Post added at 05:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:30 PM ----------

i recorded it under no load but the most you can see on the speedometer is 70-something mph in the video(CRAP QUALITY). with my foot on the kart the video was way too shaky to see the triple digits (most likely due to 18" inner tube in a 15" tire).
