Engine converter...

get a horizontal shaft engine for your kart

...but there are a number of things you can do with that engine of yours

such as spinning blades of doom

very fast skip rope

hovercraft

and so on, but do be warned it all comes down to the leniency of ur folks

What ever happened to the original poster of this thread and what was his final decision?
It appears that he is ignoring the suggestions or at least not responding.
Just curious!

Very good question. That flying mower is about the funniest thing i've seen, flying any how.

Sorry, I have been cought up between lacrosse practice for school and homework... Thanks for all of the ideas! I think it may just be easier to wait and buy an already made go kart... that would be easier, but i'll just work on the engine to tune it up and stuff

[Spitfire]

Or make a flying lawnmower.

If you can build the rite prop and carriage, you could build a nice hover board????

[Spitfire]

Get a prop from your local hobby shop

[jrrdw]

APC 20-8 Should do it if they make one to those specs. Problem is, that engine is only good for 3400 rpm's. Most airplane props are designed to run around 6000 to 9000 rpm's. The twist would have to be very very agressive.

[Spitfire]

Thats rc plane props, because of the 2stroke motor. Most full sized planes hardly reach over 3000rpm in cruise flight. so the bigger the prop the slower your engine has to run. Otherwise the tips, and large parts of the props break the sound barrier and they become useless
