Score!!!!!!!!!!

[Rotore]

just got a 725cc 25hp horz. Kohler for free! Guess you guys were right about waiting.

But all i kno from a visual opp. is that its a 725cc, pressure lub w/ oil cooler twin cyl. w/ an electric start.

time for an over powered gokart dont you think...? No i got to get it running i expect it has a broken connecting rod and leaking exhaust valves.

I'll post piks and model type code later on.

725 CC + pressure lube + smart turbo = WIN!!!

Congrats, looks like it was a very expensive engine. What kinda kart is it going on? Looks like it weighs 128lbs. and has a 1.437" PTO shaft diamitor. Sounds like you'll probably be needing to install a H-D clutch on a jackshaft or meyby look into an axle clutch. http://www.kohler-engine-parts.opee...free_shipping_info&cPath=394&products_id=7699

Do you mean for axle clutches? If so, just google "go kart clutch" and include your axles diameter. (They'd just need to be the type that mount with set-screws or maybe you could even use lock collars to secure some other types). Most any brand new clutch that can handle 25hp is gonna be exspencive. The least exspencive option might be finding a suitable/ used 3/4" bore race clutch and mounting it on a jackshaft. If your running a 1" axle, there's several 1" bore race clutch models sold that could handle your engine

yes, it is dude. the previous owner didn't know how to maintain it so it ended up with a broken rod and chipped exhaust valve head but other then that the cyl. are in good condition.

another question do u think this engine can take a 4:1 gear ratio or am i being too optimistic?
