Engine clutch combo

woodsrider823 · 11-08-2009, 08:13 PM

Hey guys I have been doing research for putting a new engine in my G1. I know I will lose reverse and all that, but I was just wondering what engines people have put in and what clutch setup or torque converter you are using. I know comet makes some good ones if you have a comet which one are you using? Also are you using the stock clutch on the rear axle? any info on any of this would be awsome thanks.

My winter project is putting a Yamaha Bravo snowmobile engine in a G1. That should take me from the original 9hp engine to about 20hp, just like putting a Vanny in a newer buggy. By swapping in the original buggy ignition system, I will retain reverse. Still doing some of the design work on it. I will post pix when I get a little further along. I picked up a Comet clutch on ebay for the primary and will get a torque spring kit for the secondary.

There is a thread maybe on BU about the bravo 250. Note you need the sled exhaust to get full power the sled had, without chopping it all up.
