hows the power with that big block and the 26s? i just ordered the 18 hp with a cam and rev kit. plus the header.. im hoping to run with atvs!! what kind of top end can u get out of it??
your cart looks bad a**!!! love those rims and tires!!

I had Tom install the 23, cam, revkit, and header in mine about a month ago.
I let him do it and traded the old motor for labor. Class job! I was not happy with the top speed plus the super low end torque someone was going to get hurt. So I ordered some 8/1s. Tore it down this weekend to install. I also stepped up to the heavy duty rear springs so I could add a back seat kit. The rear gears as I was warned is not the easyest mod to perform. But when all is done I will have a backseat kit, new brakes, the old ones where shot, and a cart that will haul 4. 40 is fast enough for me, I just want to get there quick, even if it is uphill, and through the mud. Does anyone have a desighn to put wheely bars on the back seat?

i pulled my friends drag car all over the pits yesterday at the drag strip, did wheel stands on the cart showing off a lil for the guys in the pits and it will run 48 acourding to the gps

so u get 40 out of it with the big block?? or with the high speed gears too??

greengobblin · 03-10-2008, 10:17 AM

i have stock gears, i was debating the gear change but since i got the 26's im not gonna do the gear change

The bigger the better thats the AMERICAN way the cam, head gaskets
roller rockers and rev kit will make that 18hp come a live. High speed gears
also are a good choice!!!! Good luck on the build!!
