Big Block Golf Cart 1st Test Drive / New "Amazon" Comet Clutch

- This is our first test drive with the new Comet 780 Clutch, I am pretty happy with the clutch for a "Amazon" clutch vs a name brand comet or Vegas Carts.
At the time of purchase, it was only $160 with 1 day delivery, I cant complain for the price and shipping.
I ended up switching back to my CVT Tech clutch for now, we need to adjust the engine mounts so we don't ruin the new belt.

How are you liking that ebay 780 knock off comet? My old CVTech in my American Landmaster is junk.. I just swapped in the new 459cc predator from Harbor Freight.. I'm going to order this same clutch this week.
I plan to go with a 1190 comet, ill make a video of all 3 different ones. only thing is you have to run an adapter because its 1-1/8 shaft.
@@keithellett4283 interesting. I will be following along for sure !!
What gears was in it. My 99 ezgo txt is very torquey too with the predator 670. I have no idea what gears are in it now. Mine turns 4000 rpm plus at 30 mph.
Sounds to me like you have aftermarket gears? Because my stock 13:1 gear ratio but only get me to about 23 maybe 24 miles an hour at 5000 RPMs. When I put in my 8:1 gears I ran high 20s low 30s . I did end up taking mine out and going to a 6:1 ratio and now I run roughly 38 on brand new 22x11x12 wheel set up. I don’t really think I’ll get any more speed out of my cart other than maybe playing around with the belt size and adjustment. I will also be going back to the Amazon Comet clutch once I have time to adjust motor mounts
@@keithellett4283 thanks for the reply. My belt is still breaking in. I may adjust the tension some to see if the initial jerk can be overcome.
@@craigmitchell5628 i need to do the same. just dont go to tight or you will end up buying a new belt every few months lol
How much slack did you have to put in the belt? Mine gets stuck in gear with it running, you cant shift it.
It honestly depends on what set up you have, I have a full Vegas Carts setup (clutch, engine mount, belt etc.) if your running m setup, which is a 2002 Ezgo St Sport 2x2, while running VC 47" belt the center distance between the clutches should be close to 12.5”. You want the clutches to be perfectly inline with one another from the backside, also if your running a CVTech 06 clutch which is roughly 1/2" bigger than a 780 style. I will have a new video up soon comparing the 780, CVTech & the 1190 Comet.
Just note the CV is more HD and can offer a higher speed because its larger but they are hard to find these days, the 780 is go to these days.
What is the model of that clutch
780 comet clone, there is a link listed below, I always post links to the stuff I review.
