Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

    I'm so glad you pointed out the pulse fitting. I just got my predator ghost in, and the non predator pulse pump I ordered is definitely missing that piece. Ordering today.

    Hi Tanner...run across & Google Calis Azusa, I think you'll find what you need there , cable fixtures & fittings etc..,have a look they've got an online catalogue...easy still if you fit a mild 22mm bike slider carbs to it if you've got a std predator or 160-196cc- 212cc clone engine, especially if you've disconnected the governor/throttle likeage, fitting a bike slider type carb makes hooking up a throttle cable as easy as fitting on a bike.Cheers from NewZealand.

    It really depends on how your going to build the engine. If you’re going to leave the motor pretty much stock and you have a heavy kart go with the torque converter if you’re doing a engine build with a heavy kart go with the torque converter with a juggernaut. If your kart is light and you’re going to be on the road a lot get a clutch and if you modify the motor with a spicy cam you’ll need to change the spring in your clutch to get the rpm’s up before it grabs cause performance cams raise the torque of the engine to a higher rpm. Most all cutches like max torque and cheap knock offs have a spring to change. If you want a clutch with some adjustments get a bully, viper, cheetah something like that they cost alot but worth it
