i would start by browsing all the pages and look at as many closeup 4 stroke engine setup pics as you can find . a picture is worth a 1000 words , because of the width of the motor . things like pedals get more complex , jackshafts are longer , blah blah blah

5hp and friction drive probably won't go over well. You'll eat up tires like there's no tomorrow.
