sorry about the double post but can't do more than one picture.
anyone with basic mechanical skills can remove the excess parts.
most of the saw motors are in better shape than the kart motors too.
something to do with being run within their designed limits i suppose!!!:?part two

i also included the cc and cu (thanx for the reference mcbob!!!)

here is a view of the converted motor with a stock kart manifold they go for about 10-15$ dollar on ebay.
the carb you get from the saw
the chain cover is from azusa and the dry clutch i had but you buy them new or if you're good with lathes and welding just change out the sprocket on the saw bell.
the saw clutch will work for a while at least .
or i can sell you a nice oil hartman clutch.:P
the motor mount is available as a repop steel about 45  cast aluminum about 55

my total cost on this one was about 200$
of course i started with a running saw.
