Thanks for the ideas. Thought about a cradle and using a coupler between the engine and final. Downside to that idea is that a KVF 700 oils best when sitting level.
Strectching the rear body and frame is where this is going. And jacking up. May be able to modify the wheel wells enough to look similar to a stretched scoot. The engine is compact, for what it does. The kvf is about stripped. Then I'll see what options are good for a "splice".
The outcome will be tall, about double cart ground clearance. Gotta keep the front drive shaft below the floor and cross members. Or at least keep the 4x4 option open. It'll function normally as a two wheel drive.
EZGO txt rear body has few flat areas to simply cut and add a section. Gotta get complicated! Maybe some bolt-on fender extenders? Saw the well out and create new wheel wells?
When I mentioned a "doghouse", it would be small, to hide the front exhaust pipe.
