      It seems you are in luck Sid. Not sure if you are on Facebook but on MediaSuperkart Annonces (https://www.facebook.com/groups/663095100419813/) there are 2x PVP 252 engines for sale.

      1 by Andreas Jost at 8500 Euro and 1 by Henrik Vejen at 7000 Euro, both 2014 spec engines complete with Carbs, Ignition, Exhausts and a couple of spares.

      There is no reason why you couldn’t do it. Many of the 125cc drivers run without a rear wing in the UK and some people have tried it in 250 Nat at Thruxton.

       

      If you plan on attempting it first thing to want to do is decrease the angle of the nose or probably in your case with the PVP style is make father leading edge even higher the nose.

      Secondly you’d want to decrease the caster angle. decreasing the angle will make steering easier and less prone to snapping away so you can put use more steering. Lastyou if you can move some weight balance to the rear of the kart too.

      Hope this helps somewhat.

      Not sure on where you could get them in the US but the ones we tend to us are SKF Y Bearings with grub screws, 35mm ID, 72mm OD. They are all a standard size of 19mm to fit in the bearing carriers.

      They only options is that you can have a choice of speed and load rating. By guessing I presume we use the highest with part number of YAR-207-2RF
