Motor Mount Install

[kamml53]

I have a 2020 used Phantom Scythe. I am mounting a Predator stock engine. The kart came with a Phantom Mega mount 8-15 degree mount. Looking at the motor in the mount even using the 8 degree side the engine only has half of its fuel available. Should I get a flat motor mount instead, I don't want to add a fuel tank for my beginning driver just yet.

Flat or 5*

Its for a flat dirt track race, Godspeed or Ashway.

Or just add fuel as needed .
Unlikely you will use more than a cup or so in 10-15 laps .

We’ve ran 212 laps on the 8 degree side and still had enough fuel to go another 100.

Ok motor mount is good to go. Thanks for the advice. Do I have to adjust the carb float to account for the angle?

 

[flattop1]

Generally no .

I've never seen someone with a clone or predator on a flat motor mount at either of those tracks.

No on the float.
