1996 club car transporter

[streetrodderbn]

I just bought my 2nd club car, after successfully restoring my 1988 ds. I bought a 1996 club car transporter 6 passenger. its like a mini limo!!lol . the engine smokes like a chimney-much like my 88 did before the rebuild! This one has i believe a fe350 engine the tag on it reads fe350-d. does anyone make a rebuild kit for this engine? how do I tell if it is a counter clockwise rotation or clockwise rotation? This thing has all the lights, mirrors,horn,fans,ect... I want to either rebuild it or just buy a rebuilt engine for a swap over the winter!!

Just look in to the engine compartment when the engine is turning over from the passenger side. If the clutch is moving CCW then there you have your answer. How hard can it be ?

Thanks! So, that means my 88 DS is a counter clockwise rotation too! OK, so... now where do I buy a rebuild kit???!

And, the bed has bolts to keep it from dumping, is there a mechanical handle lock on some of these??

thanks! I'll probably rebuild it my self though. the transporter has a dump bed that is bolted to not dump like some carryall models. I'd like to get the handle assembly to make the dump functional, anyone have one???
