The mental gymnastics a landlord will employ to justify immoral actions is clinically fascinating. Just because something is legal doesn't make it moral.

Hmmm. Lots of clutch slipping to get it off the line. Power band so narrow it'll be impracticle. More maintenance than actual driving.

I say do it.

I've got a complete GT250 motor waiting to be rescued if you want it. Either that or I'll put it in my daughters go-kart.





Finally back on the job!

I'd love something like that but she probably wouldn't - still trying to get her to use all of the gears in her current one.

Love the idea, as has been said, it wouldn;t be very practical, but as an exercise it would be interesting.

Only thing I can think of being difficult would be the exhaust, as the expansion chamber is an integral part of the combustion process, might be hard in a different config.

would you use pre mix?

dependant on engine, i would have it exit the bay, and turn to the rear then put in an expansion chamber.

pre-mix, again, dependant on engine.
I think there are far to many IVA issues to deal with to make it a real prospect...
