I had a thought if anyone has tried to put a torque converter plus a centri clutch on a go kart? Also what is the max fuel you can put through the carb on the 212 predator engine

first: most likely not, because there is absolutely no point in doing that

second: depends on the size of jet installed and amount of air throughput.

Stock engine.. IDK but you'll find both values in the manual (tank volume and runtime per fill) in the manual to calculate that number.

Use your imagination!

I assume this CC will engage around 3600 RPM and drive the High Gear on a Multi - Speed DIY transmission.
The TC will drive Low gear and the get you up to 3600 RPM. At this point the TC driven Sprocket starts to freewheel (because of the one way bearing installed in it) and the Clutch now takes over.

Kidding. Only sorta kinda. :cornut:

Whatever size your spark plug is asking for. Then engine will tell you what it wants if you will listen.

I wanna see photos of your race track layout. I'm thinking about doing an oval myself but those are boring.

. . . .


Don't knock the leaf-blower supercharger idea. It has quite a bit of merit...

Was I disgracing his genius by posting it here, of all places?

Surely not and besides, I was proving a point. You better check your head, Mindy, I'm worried about ya. :D
