Welcome dude. HAHA! Well dude to tell you the truth we done the same thing with a dirt bike motor and a go cart frame. I hope you got a welder. Well instead of unbolting the motor we cut the frame in two spots. Then we welded the frame to the gocart frame. Then with the shifter we made a "slap shifter" I could tell you later if you want. We used a lawn mower rear end. Dude, it's alot of stuff lol. If you want I could tell you in a PM or somthin.

well so far we got the a arms hooked up and the rear swinger on.... the engines crap / ish so im lookin for another... possibly something bigger.... so far we have accomplished the stearing brakes and tires... now we need to make the fram stronger drop the bucket seat in and be done with it.... o yea clutch is on the stearing wheel the breaks have all 4 locking system on left petal right pedal obviously is gas and the sifting we figured out that we will be putting a lever system in... push forward is shift up pushing backward is down..
