some updates...

the Radio Flyer project got a little progress, the cart tyres are finally mounted on the rims:
complete with new valves. The guys from Daytona Indoor cart in Essen http://www.daytonakartbahn.de/Home.aspx were super nice and helped me out with their equipment and knowledge- Thanks for that!
...  this is how the rims looked before:

For my new motor I bought another set of cylinder heads - 044 series, already machined for 92/94mm pistons:
and I found another engine case, with 8mm studs instead of 10mm studs - which allows ~ 2,1 liter displacement :-)

The Volksback itself is now equipped with the classic style Radio - and some good working speakers:
The chrome style fits really well with all the other chrome levers in the dashboard! Even the integrated Bluetooth hands free function works perfect! ( unless the motor gets too loud...)

I used some MDF board and mounted 2 speakers in the original speaker position:


The Emphaser ECX80 S4 speakers have big magnets for their overall size - it is still no High Fidelity, but it works o.k. for me and I didn't had to butcher up any visible Interior to make them fit!

  2. Hi Markus,
    ich glaube die Ventile werden 35,5 und 40mm groß sein. Das ist eigentlich der Standard für 044 Köpfe
