Hi, I picked up a P212 non-hemi from the scrapyard (it had just arrived, my luck!). It came with a cold air intake filter, the jetting to match, and an open exhaust. Cracking open the crankcase shows that the governor was removed (they just crushed up the gears). My issue is that the governor was removed and I don't want the damn thing to explode, but ARC billet flywheels & rods are a bit expensive and seem to be sold out, guessing due to the beer virus. The kart (trike) I've got it on has a 10t clutch to 60t pulley setup, with 18" wheels, so it doesn't seem to be set up for speed and it can't hit much higher than 30. I believe that will leave the kart in a safe RPM range but I just want to verify..
My friend and I have been WAITING a long time for deals and we snatched the trike for $150 and the engine for $70, but I feel those cost savings would be thrown out the window if that flywheel sends some shrapnel into our backs .
