Yes. The carbs came from an auction that had a Datsun 1600?. Bunch of pieces in nice shape with some new parts. Think I paid $10 for them.

Was looking on ebay for kart projects and came across this. Made from a lawn tractor. The murray we have been stripping parts from has a flat frame. Giving me some ideas. I also spotted a kart in a yard in town.

Coupon is for $99. The online sale ended, but now I have the coupon. I think I will pick one up on our next trip.

I scored one for $65.00 a few years ago. Didn't even have a use for it; bought it on spec. It'll power my minibike project eventually.

I used a 20% off coupon in addition to a sale price. They don't allow the discount coupons to be applied to motors and other fun stuff anymore.

$99 is still a bargain on a engine like that.

Totally. Costco had their Champion motors on for the same price a couple of years ago. I already had my HF motor, so I let it go.
