| This thing looks like a neat idea so far. Small machines with an engine that takes up half the frame always looks cool. | |

| Got some progress made today. Started to mock up a 2 seater seat. Mocked up the front end so its almost a rolling chassis. And I desided to pull the v-twin of and save it for my racer project and I went ahead and put this 5hp B&S on that I got from a push mower.. runs great. Some of you guys might think a 5hp motor is to small but its all about gearing if its geared right it will do just fine...I wanted this motor instead of the v-twin because for one its pull start, it does better on gas, its easer to start, and its a flathead. And also I wont have any wiring to deal with sence its pull start..so there will be no battery dyeing out on the trail, no wiring I will have to worry about getting wet and shorting out..so overall this motor will be better for my tractor/go kart. ![Truckin42's Go Kart/Tractor Build Mock_u10](https://i.servimg.com/u/f57/18/20/12/46/mock_u10.jpg) ![Truckin42's Go Kart/Tractor Build Tracto10](https://i.servimg.com/u/f57/18/20/12/46/tracto10.jpg) ![Truckin42's Go Kart/Tractor Build Seat10](https://i.servimg.com/u/f57/18/20/12/46/seat10.jpg) | |

Yeah same here..Im still working one figuring that out..i just need to find a right axle gear box or a peerless style gear box. But for now im using my k46 hydro until I can get the actual drivetrain all figured out. | |
