- Got the Comet 94C in. unfortunately, since i expected to be getting a 780, the belt that i have is too thin, and ill have to get a wider belt for optimal performance.

Would like to know all the install modifications to install the engine?
my old broken clutch is only 25mm or 1in and a tapered shaft
.. where can I find one of these ...
How did you end up doing your linkage for your gas pedal? I'm trying to figure mine out right now
Great video man! What belt did you end up using for that setup? Do you by chance have a part number? Thanks.
Were you running another clutch prior to this? How much did you have to cut the crankshaft down? I only wish I was swapping in a big block, I'm doing a gx270 swap.
I am just starting a club car build. Had a thought about your clutch issue. If you pull the clutch out on the motor shaft about 3/16 inches would that compensate for the clutch pulling the belt to far in? Or, what about a belt 1/4 inch wider?
Hey friend, if your still around, Did you have to replace the clutch ? would the old one work, original KAWasaki work, or you upgraded , Thanks
Any way you could add all the parts you used?
What about the fuel. Did you use a electric fuel pump?
were did you buy your motor
What secondary clutch are you using and what belt
I have the same Welder how the 90 work for u
There is inbuilt reverse gear?
Was the secondary clutch on the transmission the stock one
and the base of the motor where I can get it
Is there a part number from the belt your using
what belt did you wear
What year and model is your cart
Awesome opening with Van Halen’s Unchained..
What belt you running
What about relocating that gas tank so it's hidden
Not trying to be that guy but your belt is inside out, also are you using the forward for reverse and vice versa, I noticed that engine turns opposite of the original Kawasaki flat head, and lastly your rear clutch is not backwards, that's how mine came from the factory
Why were you driving with 2 feet
What are the differences between the comet 94c and 780 clutches? Will the 780 take a wider belt? Don't know which one I should buy!? Thanks!
You can get 780's with the stock belt size, or wider 1 3/16 size. I would definately reccomend the 780 over the 94C. Mine, after a year has almost completely worn out. I have to basically redline the engine now to get the clutch to engage at all. The 94C was originally designed for high revving snowmobile engines anyways. The 780 will engage smoother, and due to its design it is a much better match to a golf cart drivetrain.
Is urs stock? And what'd you do about forward n reverse since cc are backwards? Also what'd you do for ur air filter off ur carb
So far, its all stock. This year of Club Car is set up for a CCW Rotation engine, so the gear ratios werent affected. I cut the stud off of the stock intake, and put a shorter K&N filter on it. You should check out my latest update on the Club Car to get a good understanding of my current setup.
Comet 40 would do better on that size motor. Your torque converter is for the rpm a 2 stroke makes like somewhere around 7500rpm were the motor you are running only pushes 4500rpm so the converter is only scratching the top surface of the rpm power. Get a comet 40 where it will be good for the size of motor you have as well as the rpm range.
Did you change the gearing?
Stock gearing.
How fast RPMs do you run ?
Now that i have remved the governor, 5200RPM max. I dont like to push it over 5000RPM with the stock valve springs though.
Looks like a nice build so far but that belt looks a bit odd looks like it's on upside down but does it matter video is over 5 years old I am working on a electric to gas conversion going to be using the predator 212 with three stage Performance Kit and the 22 or 23 mm slide carburetor
the belt is not upside down, designed that way.
Great video do you know what the top speed is with this motor ?
Mark
Thanks. I have the engine RPM's limited at 4000 (Max is 5000). It goes 20MPH flat at this engine speed. However, all will depend on what kind of clutches you use, belt size, tire size, and differential ratio. Some guy on the forums put one of these in his Yamaha golf cart, and got it up to 33MPH with 22" tires.
what belt did you wear
How did u set up the motor to still have reverse?
+Blake Radke It has a transmission from the factory.
Only club cars have forward or reverse all others spin the motor backwards
Shift the engine over a little to line up the belt under power.
Do you have to run the cart in reverse to go forward?
This engine rotates the same way that the old one did, so the FNR transmission functions remained the same. I used the stock club car fuel pump, and hooked the vaccum line into the Valve cover vent hose.
You must have a 96 or older club car. Mine is a 1999 and the motor on it ran clockwise on the passenger side of cart. The new motor runs counter clockwise. Therefore I have to run the cart in reverse to go forward, which cuts down on your speed. I will have to put high speed gears in it to make it run as fast as it did with the stock engine. Thanks for your info. Jkm
James Kile for some reason I can't read your full comment, but just picked up a 97 abs quickly noticed mine runs clockwise how is yours using forward as reverse and reverse as forward
Looks like your belt is on backwards
could u have used the original clutch? or there is a specific reason why u changed it?
I could have, but the crank shaft would have needed to be cut and tapered. The stock clutch isnt rated for high RPM levels either.
TheAssassin111 thanks very help full. I have 2, 2005 clubcar carryall 1 and was thinking that I might be able to do this with one of them i I finally decide to keep them both
Probably a bit late, but your belt is inside out, the teeth go on the inside, the smooth side faces out.
many of those belts are designed with grooves inside and out
That belt is mounted wrong, the flat side is supouse to be out..sorry for my english.
That belt is super loose bro
Your drive belt is way too long. It will make your engagement late and at a higher RPM and will reduce your top end.
make me 1
I really think you are a bullshit online golf car mechanic. No pics on your throttle attachments? If you have nothing to hide Show the real deal!!!
