Switchblade build or fools errand?

For all who care (or don't) I now own a GC160. $50 non pumping power washer- engine seems to run just fine. now I need a torq-q-verter and information- specifically what are the sprockets used on the bikes in this (https://motorbicycling.com/threads/honda-gc160-max-rpm-with.63748/) thread- they are works of art and I expect they perform just as well.

thanks

After copious stalking - I see the rear sprocket is a 56 tooth- and it looks like the jackshaft has a 10, maybe 12 tooth-

Some work indeed!- but I’m optimistic, the fit is good and it looks like angles and clearances are workable.

Thanks Mr. Crazy- staton looks like the place for funky parts.

I would like get y’alls thoughts aabout the 3D manual clutch- I’m giving it some serious consideration. And I think I’ll be needing a jackshaft midstream.

The 3D manual clutch is great, capable of holding 20hp and ripping the rest of the bike to shreads,it's big and expensive but would outlast most applications.
 
Quick update- I received my front hub today. I think it was a good choice. Still waiting for my spokes- I think they are being conveyed via Junk transporting rubber dog poo to the local joke shop. Anyway, this thing is smooth as silk. It was ordered from Brands Cycle & Fitnesses via Amazon- 66.49 + tax free delivery.
