Ditch the MX65 pipe and order a phantom 85 from bicycle-engines.com. it's a 50+ mph engine that is reliable as long as you break it in correctly. Sounds to me like you've got a pretty large budget on this bike lol.

You may need to bolster the frame with some welds. When I bought this frame there was a gaping hole in the bottom dropout mount where the kick stand is normally mounted. Quite frankly it wasn’t the best purchase. If buying an aluminum frame I would go with Phatmotos frame. It’s welds are gusseted and reinforced. It also has a built in jack shaft and motor mount. Outside of that it has been said… an old steel frame is the go to for a solid bike.
 
Well here's the update I decided to try to do the most I could with what I already had on hand. The engine I went with was this YD85/Avenger 85 from emotomax on ebay. I must say it arrived way faster than any other kit Ive purchased from anywhere else. On the down side I wasn't able to keep the stock exhaust on due to pedal clearance issues aswell as the stock intake wouldn't allow me to put the carburetor on due to the petcock being way to close. So I had to get creative. I'm not one to take no for an answer so I took some advice from my D.S. in basic training if it don't fit force it so now I took that $49 dollar MZ65 exhaust and the stock pipe with the end result being this no weld setup looks rough but it started on the third kick so something is working. I'll take a ride tomorrow and see how it's running.
