Paul Houseworth had an old roto-tiller that the tine gears had gone out of. I pulled the tiller pulleys off and mounted it on the kid's cart frame. The motor has two shafts coming out. The extra shaft was for the reverse pulley. I put the centrifugal clutch on the rotor-motor and added 3 links to the chain. The 5hp motor and the crank is bigger than the 3hp and so it comes out of the case higher. It brought back great memories when I was a little boy watching my dad make go carts out of lawn mowers for me. He taught me how to punch chains out and work on them. I had to order a bearing for the wheel. We are now waiting for the bearing......and as soon as it gets here....watch out Keepville. The cart that went fast will now go faster.
