Question about torque converter and reverse motor

[espie166]

New to go karts .I have a predator 212 with vevor torque converter. Came with a reverse motor but not installed.my question is do I remove plate and move the converter to the input of the reverse motor or do I have to run a chain to it then another to drive shaft.
Any help would be appreciated
Thank you

I don’t know of anyone who has played with one. Maybe if you posted some pictures we could all figure it out together.

I have this set up but wanna add a reverse gear.

That is a picture of a common 30 series torque converter on a clone or predator engine. I don't see anything about a reverse motor. Most karts with the same drive system as you have are forward only. Reverse is usually getting out and pushing or picking up the front and walking it around.

I am looking to add one.would like to know if I would just move the driven pully to the reverse motor.like the maxspeed one on amazon

Yes which would involve removing the back plate and fabbing something to hold the new driven/reverse box
