Hortsman Clutch on Pred?

[CarterTalley]

I have a hortsman greased lightning that came with my kart. Would this work with my pred motor, and if so how? I can get the clutch itself on the shaft but the basket doesn’t seem to have the right indentions.

indentations for what?

Maybe 6 tab disc with three tab drum .
Or rotate the disc till they line up .

We're not sure what you mean by "indentations."

The clutch itself will work, but you will likely need to drop the engagement considerably if it was set up for a higher rpm race engine previously.

I figured out I was looking at the wrong clutch. The clutch I was referring to was in the box for a Horstman, but it is not one. The indentations im talking about are the ones that interface with the part on the output shaft that sticks out. I have attached a picture of the male side of what I'm talking about.

the sprocket, has too go to the inside .
Or you have too shim it out , accordingly , provided the shaft is long enough .
