Good work Mate.

Thanks boss 👍

[@anthonyreddy2834]

Great video as Always! I hoped you would have had a mount or two for Clone Motors. Does anyone Run those Down under?

[@PowerRepublic]

not really, mostly just the IAME, Rotax and Vortex motors

Hey Des, I’ve used a mount identical to the Kartech on a Sodikart. The mount is quite unique and as you said offers customized options to meet various needs. The problem “I have is, the chain tensioner now sits inline with the base plate and the adjustable plate now becomes too high for the tensioner. Have you experienced this? If so, any suggestions?

[@PowerRepublic]

yeah that happens. you can make and adaptor plate with a new screw hole like the KZ karts do on the OTK frames. otherwise you can just stop lower the engine mount with the stopper and use the centre locking screws to hole the engine top plate

Hey, I have a IAME leopard 09 and was wondering if I can the engine without the power unit type A? I have an external handheld starter.

[@bunta_wrx5851]

you'd have to change the ignition coil with a unit that works independently, i highly recommend not to do such a work if you're not an expert

[@PowerRepublic]

Hi , i have a BRM chassis that has a support welded right where the mount goes, do you think this sliding mount will work? Cheers Darryl.
