Mine will, you need a tune up I can't log into google once I figure that out I will post a video of the 16hp clone, you guys will love that thing. I should take one of doing some burnouts and stuff. Have one of a drag race but he jumped me so its does not show the difference as well, I told him I have to run the camera he didn't seem to care he just floored it when I turned the camera on while I sat there.

mike thats the stock 9hp, with a k+n filter, plowmans jet kit, gutted exaust and the yamaha power clutch kit. so maybe 10hp in the end?

I would say thats pretty impressive, and Sho, yours at 16 HP is I'm sure, a whole lot a fun!!
I know mine needs more power, but I doubt I'm gonna do anything about it. Its just cute.

Mine is still stock, well nearly. The 16hp I did is a family owned cart, mine is next. I've done a few things to mine some helped others I doubt they did. I worked on the clutch, drilled holes in the weights it helped a tiny bit. I changed the rear spring around to different positions, stretched it out about 2" longer or something and that helped a little. Finally I ground the ramps down at the ends to give more angle at low speed and that helped more than the above all together...but it only affects hard acceleration up to 5mph or so. I hogged out my airbox and rejetted it that helped a little mostly on topend but not that much. Each time I did something I raced a similar cart or pulled a load to compare before/after. It gps at 28 on dirt and 30 on pavement last year but its getting tired. Sometimes it starts to run funny when hot maybe valve getting bad not sure, but blow-by is much more when hot so I know the cylinder is worn. The other cart I put the clone in (that blew the oil ring) was bought at same time, though it has more miles on it. The 16hp is no comparison, it would do donuts on that gravel with two 200lb people on it. But they don't like to rev so until someone figures out what to do with one aside from $800 in mod parts, they don't give you much more topend speed. However, for a play around cart you don't need to go faster in or maybe 25s or larger tires, its a way cheap option. If you can fab the mounts and stuff, its WAY better than stock and cheaper than having stock engine rebuilt.
