that is pretty bloody good actually

just a shame the job has been quoted at $1200 - $1400 to do :x

Might research into doing it myself, i can rebuild a go kart from scratch, just not sure about the motors!!


$1200-$1400 is to steep, mine cost $715 including new bolts, machining, genuine gasket set, pressure test etc.
