That's not a bad price. Lifan is one of the better quality clone motors.

Sho sure likes his thought for that price he might want a spare.

LOL, mine was 264 but a few years ago, awesome deal! Would be nice to get the 18A charge though if you don't want pedal start. 420cc prices: 269/319/369 for clone/elc start clone/18A elec start clone.

Why would I need a spare? I would for the next cart but have no ideal when that will be, and it might not be a clone 420 it might be a twin. But great buy for you out there who want a clone, mine runs like a top its awesome compared to stock. I'd get one but don't want it sitting here for years either.

Ideally we all should have 2 engines.Then we could do whatever mods on 1 while using the other.Then we are never without the use of our carts.

I can almost buy the Vegas block I'd have to look, if I buy the Lifan and rod and cam I would put in there. Not sure I will bother it runs so nice I rather save up for the next cart to be honest.

I do wonder if a CV carb would help it any with the stock cam, but again not sure its worth doing.

Oh no, you are trying to get me in trouble! Lol, let me know what you are looking at anyway, is that the one you ran in your cart? His cheater cam? Not sure what I will do this winter but always get the itch to tear into something. Got sick and it was too cold last winter didn't really do anything. Really want to get new bumper and lights on this winter, which reminds me I need to clean house in the garage.

I've got quite a bit of coin wrapped up in that engine. New ones are pretty well built for $600, no one would pay what I need to get for it. Although it makes more power than the new ones.
