Looking to finally build my kart and taking a proper look at
engine choice; feedback always welcome
Edit: I am building this on a budget, so I don’t have the
opportunity to drop in a new GX200. I will be skip surfing for
the majority of the build and learning as I go!

My 1st kart has a Hyundai engine, never been any trouble & still
starting & running well. No 2 kart had a Lifan engine, lasted 12
meetings before catastrophic failure. No 3 kart will have
another Hyundai engine. I bought this with a 20 mm shaft &
reamed the clutch to fit.
Good luck with your build.
