thomas j sent me a message the other day:

clutch... also what size engine do you have on yours and how well does it
move...i am not looking for alot of speed just a comfortable ride...any
insight that you could give me would be greatly appreciated....thanks...tj
My reply:
Hey, thanks for the message. I put a Tecumseh 5 hp on the frame and bolted a 'Torq-a-verter' to the motor which is a centrifugal clutch and a torque converter setup and that runs a chain to the back wheel from the torque converter. 30 years ago it came with a Briggs 8hp which had plenty of go - 50mph top. The 5hp I've got now goes about 35mph top end (course I'm a little heavier these days) on a flat paved road but I kinda wish I had a little more oomph up long hills. Good luck
