    Greetings from Texas! Nice clean build. Complete strip, all new wheels, tires and bearings. New motor, clutch and chain. I noticed the correct nylon locking nuts on the new spindle bolts and new brakes. Very nice clean build done the correct way. The only change that I would have made would have been to convert it to a live axle, but that is just a personal preference. Good clean build using the correct parts. Thanks for the video.

    Nice looking kart, I have found Easy Off oven cleaner followed by power washing works well for cleaning/stripping metal. Also might want to put some grease on those king pins...

    My recommendation here and below is 6" split wheels with hubs and 45 degree valve stem tubes with the same tires you had at the first which have a much higher stance for a yard kart with a 1" live axle. I am getting 55 + mph with a bone stock predator 212 hemi still governed @ 3600 rpm with no adjustments to the governor straight out of the box from Harbor Freight with a 30 series torque convertor and a 6:1 gear ratio = 9T + 54T sprockets connecting the torque convertor to the 1" live axle on an old Manco that has a full roll cage with with two teenage boys riding in it. And both of them are football players so neither one is exactly small. 300 lbs plus riding inside the kart. A 212 cc predator is already knocking on almost 8 hp. Rather your using a 30 series torque convertor or a 4 gear 2 chain jackshaft with centrifugal clutch setup . Your looking always for a 6:1 gear ratio for anything up to 8 hp with a tire size less than 15 inches especially when using a centrifugal clutch. Changing your tire size meaning the ( "height" ) of the tire also changes your gear ratio. The first tire you had was 13". You can measure from the floor to your center axle bolt and just multiply by 2 for your tire height in inches. The split rims and tubes and tires I use can run anywhere from as little as 4 psi to 24 psi max. I just run mine at the max psi for the height and bead setting as well as less resistance when rolling.
    ** A gear ratio of 6:1 ratio with a Centrifugal Clutch will last about seven years as long as you add a single drop of oil between the retaining clip and the clutch daily or as needed. Caution: Do Not over soak the clutch in oil. It only takes barely a single drop from an oil can **
    ** Manco's originally came with a 5/8 jackshaft pre welded together on a 1"plate and pre drilled mounting holes and screws as a 1 pc. unit that mounted between your engine and to the karts mounting plate. New 5/8 jackshaft plates can be purchased but, also require a set of 1" risers with mounting bolts that slide between your engine and karts mounting plate and the jackshaft plate. A 1" rise is a must for install of a 30 series torque convertor. **
    ( 3/4 centrifugal clutch with a 5/8 Jackshaft w 1"rise & 1" live axle setup predator 212 cc ).
    clutch 3/4" 10T Engine
    clutch rear 5/8" 20T Jackshaft
    live axle 5/8" 18T Jackshat
    live axle 1" 54T Live Axle
    The above Clutch side is a 2:1 ratio
    The above Live Axle side is a 3:1 ratio
    Now multiply both sides together. 2:1 x 3:1 = 6:1 gear ratio.
    ** All gears should be listed as #420 or #41 Type B or C when ordering **
    ** Avoid ordering #40 chains or gears, or you can only use #40 chains or gears **
    # 420 chain is a 0.25 "internal width" = width of gear teeth in mm. 4000 lb rating
    #41 chain has a 0.251 "internal width" = width of gear teeth in mm. 2000 lb rating
    #40 chain has a 0.312 "internal width" = width of gear teeth in mm. 4000 lb rating
    ** lb rating is based on size of pins and thickness of plates that holds the links together **
    The #420 chain will have far less slop ( side to side motion ) in the chain. And has greater strength than #41 chain and is the chain most commonly used for go karts. A #35 chain and #35 gears are also used for mini bikes and go karts for "weight saving" in race applications.
    ** don't forget master links and half links for your type chain when ordering **
    ** don't forget plenty of 3/4"and 5/8" washers for aligning the clutch, torque convertor, or jackshaft gears to your engine and live axle. **

    Would mounting the foot pedals in front of the steering arms give you the room you need?
