alright most of you know I that I put a different engine in my blaster.

so heres what I plan on doing with the old 200 (blaster) engine.

I am biulding a 1 seater go cart.

I am going to biuld a custom aluminum frame a and use a quad rear end that way it will be easy to find parts. (paddles, brakes ect.)

I'll prolly use quad A-ARMS too. that way it will be easy to find tires.

I just started thinkin about this 5 minutes ago so I dont know what all I'm going to do yet.

what do you guys think?

any suggestions would be great.

thanx.

sounds like that thing will rip if you make it, you definalty should go for it and create that monster[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Hellyea!! Go for it!! You'll have as much fun on that as yer main ride.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

I just got done talkin to my uncle and he told me the name of a certain kind of metal that would be cheaper stronger and about the same wieght as aluminum.

so I think I'm goin with that.

I'll keep posted when I come up with new idea's and stuff.

thanx for the motivation guys.

 

I think using the a-arms would be a good idea because if your using the rear end too, that means it will be 2 wheel drive. 2 wheel drive go-carts always seem to have a problem with their turning radius, hopefully you could solve that problem by using a quad front end.

 

One more thing to think about, unless you plan on welding the a-arms onto your frame and having no suspension, you are going to have to make custom a-arm mounts and custom shock mounts... Its going to be alot more work than you think, but if will kick @ss if you can do it right.

 

I made costom engine mounts for my 360.

my dad and me both know how to do it, so that wont be a prob.

I'm prolly using a banshee rear end and A-ARMS with hydrolic brakes and all that good stuff.

 

Sounds like a headache but what the hell, why not? Besides what else are you going to do with the engine?

 

actually I like workin on these projects.

I just found out that I'm gettin a VW bug that has a tricked out engine but it has no tires or wheels and the body is all scrued up. cause the guy crashed it.

my mom's friend's brother is the guy that is sellin it. he just wants to get rid of it so I'm buyin it for $100 or maybe even free cause he just wants it gone.
