Ok.. Help me choose !! Predator V-twin Vs. Vanguard 31HP
I know some of you may say neither ... but I got myself in a pickle...
Previously ordered a Predator V-twin for my 6 seater G2... last night I called to check on it and was told it was back-ordered 2 months away... I didnt cancel the order ... figured i would see if I could find a Vanguard or Honda motor... this morning I found a Briggs&Stratton 31 HP Vanguard Horizontal Engine 1-1/8" x 3" Shaft ... I found a couple of builds with this and bid/won ($1300) it on ebay at 10:05 am ... at 10:07 am HF emailed my predator is on the way ... FML!!!! SO... cart is a 6 seater Yamaha G2 lifted ... My first golf cart build however I have built several extreme sand cars and I can weld... I'm not too nervous either way ... Whatcha think ??? |

Boy, what a sad life you must have.
 If the Vanguard will fit, I would install the Briggs. Congrats! |

Carry an extra pair of underwear once you get the Briggs installed. |
