Okay I have a clubcar carryall, and the motor blew (stupid ass kawasaki flathead, the connecting rod snapped into three). Still got it, but I don't want to replace the motor and have the same thing happen again... So I want to go with a 4 stroke, 200cc+, atv engine.
 
I was thinking that but I want something half way simple. I mean its no simple task, don't get me wrong, but I want to make it as simple as possible.
 
idk maybe look for a smashed utv engine or something at a atv srcap yard or something
 
I seen one on my local Craigslist about a month ago with a Polaris 400 Scrambler motor in it.. The pics didn't look to bad to do either b/c they run the same type of clutch as the Golf Cart motor anyway but with about 25 more HP.
 
ya a older big XR aircooled motor would be good, alot of torque and they go for cheap, that would be a easy swap too. but then again, are you goin chain drive or shaft drivin? if shaft drivin, you should find an old V45 Honda Magna v-4 motor. those are simple shaft driven motors with a ton of torque
