wickedSS Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 I'm considering buying one used..it looks good in the pics anything I should be worried about also what would a 583 (100 hp roughly) run in the 1/4 mile..that's what I wanna use it for.

wickedSS Posted November 6, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 That's exactly what I said boonman. It's a ski pooooop motor I had an f7, 140 hp out the box..but that's not even in a class NEAR the 583. It has pipes and clutching it appears..it may have around 100 actually who knows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bashee crazy kidd Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 ive seen a sled with 250hp!!! thats crazy i wouldnt even ride the sled!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onebanshee Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 I go up to the Hill Climbs in Jackson Hole every year, those sleds are SICK, 250+ hp, in a sled is some crazy shit, I would give my left nut for one of those sleds lol, in high school me and four buddies built a go-kart frame, and then tore a old sled apart and slapped the engine in the go-kart, the engine was a 440, it was CRAZY, we had it estimated at 150mph, but we never got it goin that fast, the engine was old and we eventually got burned out on workin on it, so as of now it is sitting in a shed in Wyoming, waitng to be completed, all it needs is a chain, and some front tires, and little engine work, and this thing could go 150 plus.

onebanshee Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 I never said how much horsepower it had, we had the speed ESTIMATED at 150mph, with the gear ratio and tire size it should have done 150+, now if the engine would have actually pulled that i dont know, we did not have a lot of work done on the engine, but i know for a fact that with that engine and go-kart frame it would have EASILY done 90+ with the front tires off the ground the entire time. but who knows what it would have actually done, it was blast to build to though.
