    New predator 212 to go on Manco 593 T-bird

    I have mixed feelings about the upgrade to the Predator 212cc. I would have preferred not to blow up the original 3.5hp Tecumseh but when I picked up the tbird, the throttle was operated with a clothes hanger. This was my first reassembly of a throttle like this and I effed it up and blew a hole...

    T-Bird Forks

    I am thinking I would like to make the forks on a Manco T-Bird longer by say 3-4 inches. Is that do-able? And if so ,would I also have to change the angle of the fork neck?

    Manco T-Bird to rat bike suggestions

    I am considering turning my Manco T-Bird into a rat bike. There are so many creative minds on here I thought I would throw it out there and then use the suggestions to make a project log. Right now it has a 3.5 tec on it. Everything else is all original. If you were gonna rat one what would you do?

    Manco T-Bird chain/sprocket ??

    Me and my son are re-doing a Manco t-bird and It had an old Tecumsh 3.5 and 420 chain on it but now we're putting a 6.5 clone on it and I need to order a new clutch/chain for it. Will a 41 chain work with a 3/4 shaft clutch...is the rear sprocket compatable to that ? Thanks in advance.
