Re: 89 Carryall Lifan swap
Cart looks good d, I love the winch. Where’d you get it? I was thinking about putting one on mine. I also want to mount an LED light bar on the bumper, and maybe an alley spot light on the door frame😏

CE9380AF-C28A-427D-8B29-E4C49B455741.jpg Well, it took almost a year because I’m a snowbird and my cart resides in the south and I reside in the north for 8 months of the year, but my yamaha muffler was finally adapted to my Carryall Lifan swap. I had to cut off the heat shield and cut the flanged inlet pipe out of the muffler and turn it 90 degrees and then put a flange on the end of the VC header pipe, but other than that, no mods were required. It’s really quiet an only restricts performance slightly, but it’s worth the trade off for the lack of noise. Plus I was able to use the original mounting bracket big C clamp by spreading it out some and adding a longer bolt to the clamp. The basic swap is done. Anything else will be performance enhancers. |

Re: 89 Carryall Lifan swap

Re: 89 Carryall Lifan swap
According to the VC parts set it is a 3/8 nf 24 X 3.5"s Just check it with my craftsman thread chasers on a spare VC crank and that is indeed correct.

Re: 89 Carryall Lifan swap
Very cool job on the muffler, those factory mufflers are very high quality. It's amazing that a 1.5" inlet and 3/4" outlet doesn't affect performance drastically, maybe because the engine is stock?

Re: 89 Carryall Lifan swap
Could be Slo. I had the original Carryall muffler on it last year temporarily and it was a couple miles an hour faster before the rev limiter kicked in but it wasn’t dramatic. I was more attracted by the Yamaha muffler being stainless and of a similar diameter to the original (minus the heat shield) allowing me to use that OEM rubber mounted factory camp. Plus its fairly quiet. Do these clone motors work any better with back pressure?

Re: 89 Carryall Lifan swap
Does yamaha use a different muffler on their 402? If not the displacements are pretty close

Re: 89 Carryall Lifan swap
I haven't noticed that backpressure was an issue good or bad on these engines. Usually the exhaust is so short that it won't really build any backpressure. Your setup might. Most of the setups I've used were free flowing and they ran really good.
