What fuel pump and regulator did you use? The pump looks to be Mr. Gasket brand but I can't tell what brand the regulator is. Also is the fuel pump fairly quiet? I've heard they can be kinda noisy. Thanks

i picked up the fuel pump and regulator at advanced auto parts . the fuel pump was around $50.00 and the regulator was around 20.00 ....... i will hve to check and see the brand..... its real quiet due to the fact i still hve eggshell foam under seat from factory...

Hey crappieguy,
Last I read, you were in need of higher gears to get some speed out of your ATV powered cart. If your getting 40 mph out of it now, you must have found'em, huh.

Love that IFS you have in there..... something I want to do on my own Marathon.

BTW, in case you haven't figured out how to dribble a football.....

Hello, I know this was some years ago but I am in the same position with the cart going in reverse after I swapped the engine. Can you tell me if you were able to pull the rear diff cover off and just flip the gears or was there more to it?
