Engine is mostly back together, just having to track down some metric bolts that were long enough for the carb. Had to cut the tin with the dual carb setup so now the tin needs to be repainted. Ordered some 2” wheel spacers and a front brush guard. Waiting on the lift kit and I have some 23” tires with 12” rims in the garage that will be used until the 26” tires are ordered.

Did you have to modify the exhaust header since you shaved the cylinder heads down .030"?

I've milled heads .030, no issues with exhaust header.

Haven’t done much to the cart recently but progress is being made. Ordered some parts and decided to go with a different clutch.

The cart is coming along great, frame has been wire wheeled and painted, lift kit has been installed, temporary 23” tires are on for now, 25” itp mud tires will be used. Ordered a steering wheel, a body wrap, kenwood speakers, seat cover, tach, speedometer, diamond plate side rails and bag well, and a few other things.
