  • No it is not possible. The boat motor is not configured properly for a GO-Cart and most boat motors are water cooled and need to siphon water.

    no… boat engines are designed specifically for water use…not only to propel a boat through the water, but the boat engine uses the water to keep itself cooled.

    your best alternative for a go-kart engine would be along the lines of a lawn mower engine..

    in the long run… it might just be cheaper for you to buy an engine desinged for go-karts.
