Details on setting up engine and transmission mounts for a one chain drive system. I think this is the only one like it where a forward/reversed transmission is linked directly to the golf cart axle. I use a 16HP engine with a CVT torque converter. Special thanks to my friend and co-worker Robert Kain who machined the key slot on the transmission with his milling machine. There is a major flaw in this video that I did not record, I ended up using the input shaft of the transmission as the input and output shaft as the output which is different from what is said in the video. My apologies. I also used a Roll-Ring as my chain tensioner which is recorded in a separate video.
Here are the major parts, I put in links to two different engines, a 13hp and a 16hp. The rest of the stuff I made, like the throttle and choke cables, Mount for engine and transmission etc
