We're Building a 5 Speed Racing Kart! (16HP)

  • We're waiting for the drag strip to open for the season, so we're starting a new project in the meantime. A 200cc four stroke 16 horsepower engine with a 5 speed transmission and electric start. We're putting the Lifan on my "9 reasons to buy an old go kart" kart that had been wrecked, pushed to the side, and parts robbed. The kart chassis, a Phantom Racing Chassis Gauntlet, is getting a mild restoration as well, with touch up paint, new floors, and rust repair.

    Your plasma cutter needs a filter-drier on its air line. Moist air will turn to steam in the arc and make it pop and spit.

      Or too high of pressure

      @ralphmenta249 6 років тому +4

      Project - Condensation perpetually builds up. Even if u drain it, there will ALWAYS be buildup. Mike Jones was correct, if u dont have one, u NEED one. U might get away with not using one a few times but when that condensation hits, u can blow off the tip or entire nozzle.

      i know this is old vid, but does the cfm on the compressor out run the cfm you need for the plasma? i learned, my pancake compressor was NOT enough

    On this build, could Issac please do a tutorial on basic wiring please? How to move the electric starts, what wires what on motors like these, and how to run batteries and lights and such? I've seen all yer vids and yas always say, "Ike's gonna wire it up.", and boom, they're wired up. Thanks guys.

    15:00 its a paint ratio stick. Use it to measure your ratios of paint/hardener and thinners. Still use these quite often

    I put one of those 200cc motors on my racing mower. I used the lever that raises the blades up and down as my shifter.. instead of using a clutch pedal I used a handlebar lever. So I pull the clutch in with my hand and shift it forward/backwards as I’m banging them gears!! Love the vids!!

    That "stick" is the OG way of measuring out paint mixes(different paints to achieve specific colors+thinners etc) for Air guns.
    Now a days the marking are just on the side of the "mixing cups" to simplify and save time.

  • @AgentWest
    @AgentWest 6 років тому +1

    That strange looking ruler is for mixing paint and other stuff that has a mixing ratio. Let's say it's 2:1, so you put it in a container and find a scale that is marked as 2:1. Then you pour in the first chemical to a line (let's say it's "3") and pour the next thing up to the line to the right marked "3". Looks like the one you have is a 100:50:40 (30?) Sikkens made for their primer with scales being primer:hardener:reducer respectively.
    As for the plasma cutter, as others have mentioned a moisture trap is a must. On top of that the torch that usually comes with those is really tiny and is perfect for sheet metal and not much else. You an get a bigger torch for about $50 and that would make a world of difference. Make sure you get some guide wheels or at least one of those guide frames for the torch as well because the tip should not touch the surface while cutting. There are torches where you can just drag it on the surface, but they are more expensive.

    Love your channel but was getting really bored of the usual predator and torque converter stuff. Love that you’re diversifying!

      How about shifter and torque converter? That’s what I am doing on my racing mower

    Hope to see you guys hit 500k subs this year. I’ve been subbed since 2014 I believe when you guys did the radio flyer rat rod

    I would deffinately suggest getting it completely sand blasted and powdercoated to make it last longer as well as to inspect the frames for cracking.
