How big is the motor? #420 (#40) is the smallest chain I'd use, but there are many karts out there with 6.5hp motors running #35 chain (mostly single wheel drive) The issues you'll have is matching the jackshaft sprocket with the axle sprocket size- very few off the shelf jackshaft sprockets with #40 or bigger chain size.
