Cool looking engine but the kart is a fun kart not an old racer.

The Saetta V-11 deserves a really nice live axle chassis. Bug Wasp or Scorpion would do it justice, as Bug people were the early Saetta gurus. Faye ran this engine in Italy and did quite well with it. One of our central Florida guys put 2 of them on an Alpha, and they wouldn't get out of their own way. I remember that proper break-in was a major factor due to tight tolerances. The nice fun kart you show deserves a Briggs to run in the yard for the kids. TJ
