i have moded the cart with header/air intake/jetted carb/etc. the power is there but it gets to 29mph in about 100yrds or so.

thoughts please....

I used to run my 99 G16 30+. It's peak reving at this speed with stock gears in the rearend. Just be careful and back off from time to time. Don't hold it to this speed on the road continuously. And keep the oil changed regularly!!

And, I'd just bypass the governor if your going to run like this. Get a little better performance and no aggrevating shutdown from the governor. Just my opinion.

A big issue with over revs depends on the type of rear clutches you are running

Getting both sheaves machined at the proper angle & having a belt matched to does angle will reduce a lot of revs at high speeds

I am running 35 mph & not close to over revs


A regular torque kit are good for pulling but revs the engine too much, I have tried one & returned it, they are different springs for different application
I don’t believe in running the same kit from G1 to G22 the engines don’t have the same power band
