      I have a buggy I've been building and I have to keep redoing things on...wondering in your experience....what is the cheapest number 1 upgrade I can do to my Duromax 440cc to squeeze some juice from it? I have a crazy rear axle that seems to be a pipe in the center section and I managed to weld an old Polaris ATV rear sprocket to it but it's too tall a gear,don't have any easy way to add a bigger sprocket ..I have the forward/reverse transmission from the Polaris but really haven't sorted an easy way to mount it. I am trying to get it proper as it's a 2 seater and I'm doing all the work on it I can in order to take my autistic 7 yr old for rides , he Loves anything with an engine but he's scared of his powerwheels car , go figure , lol ,problem is it'll go about 60mph but it takes some work to get it out of the starting gate. But Being a disabled adult with a tight income I don't have the big bucks to throw all these parts at it...I manage to save a few dollars to the side here and there though. Thank You muchly for any advice and God Bless.

    Back in 1985 I drank a bottle of vodka and went for a ride on one of those. I still have a scar. I saw a guy do the A Team (tv show) jump on it. He didn't get hurt and the Odyssey barely had any damage. They were built. The torque converter was the weak link.

    Just this week I was clearing out some blackberries on the property and came across one of these frames in the bushes. The frame looks good and has the rear axle. The front plastic was there but horribly decayed along with the steering wheel. I'm thinking of building it up from there, but will need just about everything.

    I had one of those growing up. My parents thought it was going to be more safe than a four wheeler. It wasn’t. Broke my wrist really bad, though it took on three trees when I did it. So much fun. The steering column tab is probably tweaked, and those things EAT tie rods if you hit anything.

    I got 2 of them. With sprint frames. I seen a honda atv with the same front suspension but with front brakes, that would be a good addition. I had trouble with seats being too high and my legs hitting the steering. Usually I have to go back to the recessed seat , better ergonomics. Have you thought of the duramax engine with the original rear transaxle? How bout boxing the rest frame and making it a swingarm suspension. Keep up good work.

The throttle is linked just how you did it and it works fine. It starts up just fine but when I touch the throttle it literally takes off and will not stop unless I kill it.

    • @mexvette8209
      @mexvette8209 Před 4 lety

      I've done the same to my 420cc and 390cc engines put 35lbs springs they can be done by hand. Without a valve spring compressor. Will get in the upper 5000 rpm range. On my third big block the Vegas kart 460cc I put 50lbs springs due to a marine cam plus optional 1:1:1 ratio billit rockers good investment for an additional $20.00 on top of the engine gives you an extra 10% lift on your duration. Plus self ported and polished the head and milled 60 thousands. So that one got 50lbs springs put the 35lbs springs in to the predatorn420cc. My Honda GX has had the governor removed header pipe and a K&N style intake with the #42 jet with 35lbs valve springs. I might be upgrading to a billit arc flywheel ,rod and a 280 lift torque cam and 1:1:1 ratio rockers from Vegas Carts. Will definitely be putting in 50lbs springs. If you put a large cam with more than 350 lift you'll need dual 65lbs valve springs.
