I have a American Express go kart that was given to me. Engine is beyond reparable so I am looking for a new one. What's a good replacement with decent power?

Yep... Honda clone.
Predators 212cc has sort of a cult following and a HUGE aftermarket for parts. And you can snag em for $99 if you catch a Harbor Freight tent sale.

Like air filter adapters and performance air filters, free flowing exhaust pipes, larger carb jets, Billet Connecting Rods and Flywheels, Offset woodruff keys for advancing ignition timing, Forged Pistons, Performance Cam Shafts, High compression heads, Thinner head gaskets, SS Valves, CrMo Pushrods, Atuomotive style retainers with split keepers, Billet Lifters, Heavy Duty Valve Springs, ratio rocker arms, Motorcylce style carburetors, ..... I could probably go on, but that covers the most of it.

Others can add in their own favorite places to shop for engine parts.
The Engine is sold at Harbor Freight.

Please describe to me your definition of "beyond repairable".
Please take photos too! I wanna see an engine that's beyond repairable. I (and the rest of us) just love catastrophic damage. Must be really obliterated.

I think that's what baffled Tony as well..
IIRC his engine came as a concrete paperweight and is now.. on an AusEx (his home made AmEx clone)
So unless the case is damaged or the piston scored the cylinder far beyond any oversize bore...
there is no such thing as irreparabel.
There is such thing as "repair makes no economic sense" though;
since I believe we talk duramax clone here...
(I think you can follow me with this wild guess, right?)
it might be cheaper to get a new clone
(duramax or predator.. what ever.. )
6.5hp engines do nicely..
But first, let's see what you would have to spend to revive yours, shall we?

Childhood friend maybe?
I knew a guy named Tony.
He's about 6'5, and literally rides a pony.
It's the funniest thing you ever saw.
Holding his feet up so they don't drag.
Who the fund is Tony?
yeah my fault... multiply your postcount with 4.5 and you're getting a hint as reward
need a better one? Substract 120.

You are correct about my engine but, what I was confused about was what he meant by
Where to get the engine (already stated
) or parts?Who the fund is Tony?
That would be me, Joe...
