if you have a Rokon, Snorunner, Mini Bike, Go Kart, or other small engine special project that needs a custom engine... or more power, you're in luck. You can even use those go cart engines for fire fighting water pumps! (thank you Dan the Man!)
You also see them used in earth tampers and on Rokon all wheel drive motorbikes. The PowerBee has seen use in a bunch of applications. Where it really shone was on the 'C' Open racing karts in the 1960's. Here's an example of a tuned 820's with all the porting tricks running dual pumper carbs on methanol. Probably putting down close to 20hp each. So 40hp total pushing 130lb kart +150lb driver the power to weight gets close to old F1 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EyxC4lo7tQ)
