Your cart will be worth more with the correct engine in it and it will cost you about that much to install a different one even if you have the engine. The engine cradle and clutch alone will be $400 or more. That is unless your good at fabrication and know about machine work, given the way you fail at spelling it's not looking good for you.

Those motors new are a few thousand dollars. It all depends on what you wanna do really.

And For those of you that don't understand AOL speak here is what I think he said.

Is it worth spending 650.00 for a rebuilt motor? Its a 350cc. Should I change it to another? I have a kohler 14 hp single cylinder. Is it worth the effort? TM

I have cousins in W.VA who write letters zackly like that! I read it just fine!

As for your motor options..., it really depend on TMS (no, not PMS), Time, Money, Sweat.

A lack of resources in any one of these areas will increase the demand in one or both of others.

Time and Sweat are the easiest to control, whereas Money tends to be the limiting/determining factor. That said, if you can dish it out, take the easy road and throw cash at it. If you cannot control your fires with cash, then Time and Sweat are your only option.

On aside note, the crankcase could have been damaged at the point of initial failure (small cracks or big hole). If you decide on the T&S route, cracks will make the M factor a foregone conclusion.

Can you turn it over, or is it seized?
