Here's a few pics of my G2 project. This is my first cart and it's been
a great experience so far. I don't have begining photos but I've painted
her, clutch kit, K&N air filter, 4wheeler exhaust and jets for carb. I need more
power!! Any advice on a cheap big block would be great!! Thanks

Looks great Reid It looks like your primary is not closing all the way? If that is true, then your not getting the top end that you should be.

As far as sheap big blocks, I dont know of any such animal. I got a deal on my Honda but then ended up buying all sorts of parts so that by the time I was up and running, I was real close to 3k.
CPP sells a complete conversion kit for a G2 for 1950.00 to 2200.00. Every thing you need to be up and running in a day (subject to skill level)

You might be right about the clutch. I just put the clutch kit one and it's not
acting right. Do you have any ideas one how to fix this? Thanks dude!!

I'll wait on some of the guys with better knowlege than me. What I can tell you is mine was not closing all the way and I found my belt was 2 tight.
My buddies was not closing all the way and we found that his clutch was a little messed up on his G1, we pulled it and rebuilt it but it had been bad for a while and the sheeves were never right so we simply replaced it with another OE one we found on ebay cheap.

Lets see what the smart people say

OK, thanks Essness! You da man!!

Reid, both clutches need 1 or 2 pumps of grease in the zirks, to make sure they slide easy. Try that first.

[Reid Hartford]

Yeah, I was looking at that a few min. ago. I just put it on jacks and hit the gas.
seems to be going in and out ok. going to hit it with some grease to see if that will improve anything. when I'm going down hills hawlin butt it sounds restricted. Should
I get a G9 ignition on it? will this help with the restriction? Thanks!!

took my clutch apart today and it looked like someone beat it with a hammer!
looks like I'm in the market for a new primary. Man they are not cheap!!!

Call Tom at CPP. This would be a good time to look at a little extra pep

I agree with the peep. better get what I want and only do it once instead
of a cheap one that will break again. Thanks for the advice
