I know you said it did not have an engine, when you found it, but was it set up for a gas engine or electric ?
Does it matter.. I would like to put together a gas one.. The place i work at has an electric one, that is alright, but im told the battery's are EXPENSIVE and there are bout 6 of em..

it was origionaly gas, wich makes the drive system super easy to hook up. the cvt setup on a sled is just like the cvt on a stcok gas cart, im using the origional ez-go secondary clutch and it works fine with the ski doo primary.

That thing must go faster than 40 because I have a 450 rhino and it goes 38-39mph on gps,
I like it! throw a cage and some seat belts on that thing you could have a blast in the woods, Hows the suspenstion?

Wow that this is awsome. The only thing I would be concerned about is the cooling system. Are you using a water cooled set up or is it just air?

it is air cooled, and i try not to overheat it but, it runs prety hot.
the suspension isnt that great but better than i would expect for leaf springs, it corners decent because its pretty low to the ground and is fairly light compared to a rhino.

if you want to start a project, than ez go gas is going to definitly be the easyest, i dont think club cars rear end can handle 50hp like the ezgos rear end... also honda 25hp are suposed to drop rite in place with very litle mods to the mounting system.

we got 40 on the gps at about 7000 rpm wich is a litle over redline, but iv had it all the way to 9000 , it may not be lifted but its low center gravity makes drifting it prety easy

That is awesome.
I bet it would handle alot better with an ATV's front tires instead of the rear..
Did you have to do any welding to fit it in?

nope, it has a front peice that mounts to the stock skidplate that we cut about 6 inches off and hung 2 L brackets to the ski doo mounting plate and used 1 inch square bar between the reer mounting tabs and the mounting plate to gain some carb clearence, the bigest issue is that the shifter on the reer end hits the carb and im afraid im gona rip the intake boot. i have about 100$ in hardwere store expenses including gas line, hardwere, brackets, drill bits, taps, wiring, switches, ect.
