Engine Shaft size? And chain size? Would be helpful...

How big are the tires and how many teeth on the rear sprocket? And yes, you will need to tell us the pitch of the rear sprocket. 3/8" (#35) or 1/2" (#41, #40, or #420)? And the engine shaft size.

Guessing 60 teeth and 18" Tires and 1/2" Pitch with a 1" crankshaft
So a 1" bore, 10T, #41/#40/#420 clutch (if my assumptions are correct).
Something like this for flat riding

Or maybe this 1" 30 series TC? Is that a real thing?
Will probably be an issue to mount the TC tho. Maybe Lifting the engine, removing the gas tank,.... Ask GaryQuick how difficult it was for him. LOL

The Torque Coverter is a better option than a Cent.Clutch. Big Tires and CC's don't mix very well.

Maybe its the angle, but it looks like there may be some clearance issues...?

The more I look at it, the more it looks like a TC backplate would fit. It has a skinny motor mount so it should clear that. No frame in the back to worry about. Just maybe kick the axle sprocket a tad over towards the driver side wheel if needed. The rear sprocket and chain may ride next to the backplate for a bit.
I'm not sure. It may fit easily, it may be a difficult task.
But first he has to answer our questions about his engine and buggy.
