Homelite Could These Be Kart Parts? - Gary Harvey - 02-09-2017

Can someone tell me if any of these parts are the same as kart engine parts?
Or can be modified to work as kart engine parts?
That would be awesome if thay could be!!

Thank you so much, Gary Harvey

Rotary valve, angled head fins, and hard to tell, are those cylinder base gaskets for 2 cylinders? If so, I'd lean towards possibly an early snowmobile app.

didn't notice that steve. you're right they might be worth nothing. unless the rotary valves are just mixed in?
need more info. i may have one of those jugs. if so they are off lawn mover motors at least the jug i got supposedly came from a lawn mover.if they are oddballs there will be a huge problem finding the missing parts to assemble them.

deff. rotary valve blocks you can see where carb boot bolts to block ..cranks are slotted for valves also ..not sure what think ..
