Default Plans v.s. Kits Please Help

I know this isnt really about golf carts, but this is alsoa buggy forum. Anyways I was doing a project where i was converting an old electric ezgo golf cart into a gas go kart, but i need to make some changes...

I have found that some of the parts are missing and it may weigh too much, so i have decided to get a go kart frame and build from there.

Here's the problem... I think i would enjoy buying plan more instead of a kit and tere are more plans out there that fit my style and needs than kits, and also i can make some adjustments to the looks and everything just buy ordering different pats (since you order each part seperatly, unlike a kit). But my dad insists that i should get a kit just so i can have everything there, and that it would probobly cost less.

I have found very many good plans but i cannot find many kits. The main problem is the cost. Would a kit cost me more than buying each part seperatly with a plan?

Sorry But I think I have to agree with DAD on this one. normally a kit will save you over all. Now if you already have lets say the frame, wheels, and some other parts that you using then the plans would be cheaper. But if you are starting of fresh go with the kit.

Hey wingnut, Is there any kits that are close to what your looking at? if so get it and sell the parts you don't want or need so you can afford the ones you want.

What are you wanting that you see in a plan?
