Default Re: considering an engine swap

ViperTom, sounds like a great deal to me!! Only thing you need to watch out for is the shaft, most generators are tapered and it is difficult to find a clutch that fits. But that engine having the 1" straight shaft will work.
You should also notice a BIG improvement in performance with that engine. Nothing beats the power, sound and durability of a V-twin.

Does that engine happen to look like this? If so how do you like it? I have been wanting to try this engine in a cart ever since I saw it.
