Default Re: Broke my 350

It definitly cheaper to buy a motor than to rebuild one. You'll spend a ton of money fixing it, more trying to make it run fast and then be dissappointed that it doesn't have any torque.
I'm modifying a 350 and it can be $$$. I agree w/PM and Ruredy. I'm in pretty deep and need to complete it........... A 350 short stroke will NEVER have hi torque.

Just curious on what broke, bearing cap, connecting rod itself, ristpin ??? Thought I might just change the rod for now. I found a guy on ebay who sells rebuilt 350s for $650. I just ride my cart in a campground in Florida during winter and a 350 is fast enough. I get enough complaints now with my Yammy G1 Gasser about going too fast and WHY IS YOUR CART SO NOISY? Thanks all, I think, I'm going to enjoy this forum. ED

as far as I can tell it just broke the rod I drove it home about 8 miles on one cylinder so the biggest piece left was about 3/4" square so I'm not exactly sure.

And yes the 26" tires do take a little umph to get moving but once you get them going you just wish you had better brakes. I'll see How the new 18hp does at pulling me around.

Details Details I do know however that I will need something different in the stopping department just have not figured out what yet maybe front setup off a quad? I'm not willing or able to pay market price for golf cart disk brake upgrades.
