[Kartbuilding] How to build a wooden go-kart powered by a lawnmower engine!

[Stephen Burke]

Hi,

I used a 3.5HP Briggs and Stratton 148cc Vertical Drive Engine.

The exact engine can be seen at:

It was quite an old Engine, but it worked good for me.

I got between 25 and 30mph with it.

Best of luck,
-steve
