I am building the Blackwidow cart. I just purchased the plans. I am having a hard time finding 14" tires (per parts list).
What would be the result of using 15" tires? Would I need to change clutch or sprocket teeth sizes?
Can I substitute a Briggs and Stratton engine for the Tecumseh?
Thanks,
Heck

Heck,
You can use pretty much any tire size you want with this kart. Keep the teeth the same for this one as it has plenty of headroom with the current configuration. Use any motor that will fit!

The s-12 was a change in the plans after we learned a bit more... These are used for the steering support. once welded into place you put the top steering block in it and it holds the steering shaft.
The expanded metal is used for the floor board to put your feet on. You can simply use plywood if you wanted... its just the floor.
