well, here is the deal. several years ago i got a free 7 HP Kohler engine that ran ok but needed overhauling as it had many many hours of use on it. i did this and have it now looking all pretty and tight again but am wondering if it would make a decent engine for a go cart. i am not into anything like some kind of race cart just one for my son and i to have fun with. if you think so or have suggestions i appreciate it. what i need to find is a good place to get plans for a chassis. there must be websites for that somewhere. thanks :wave:
