New Odenthal Racing Products at Swift Karting: Motor Mounts, Camera Systems & Universal Hardware

Swift Karting just rolled out a major refresh of our Odenthal Racing Products lineup, with 25 newly photographed, re-described, and SEO-rebuilt listings live on the store. If you race a Briggs LO206, Animal, World Formula, clone, or any 4-cycle sprint kart, this update is for you. We pulled in everything from full one-piece motor mounts and the EZGP camera mounting system to the universal tube clamps, airbox cradles, and exhaust pipe brackets that hold the rest of your kart together.

This post is the hub. We grouped the 25 SKUs by what they actually do on the kart, so you can jump straight to the parts you need. Then over the next six days, we are publishing three deeper how-to guides that go through sizing, installation, and pairing - links to those follow-up guides are at the bottom of this page so you can bookmark them.

What is Odenthal Racing Products?

Odenthal Racing Products (ORP) is a long-time American manufacturer of precision-machined kart hardware. Every part on this list is CNC-machined from 6061 aluminum or hardened steel, finished and engraved in the USA, and built specifically for sprint kart, oval, dirt kart, and 4-cycle classes that run rail-style chassis. Their EZ-Set, Pro Series, and Code Red mounts have been on national-podium karts for years, and their EZGP camera mount system is the same hardware professional teams use to capture race footage and AiM SmartyCam telemetry.

Below is the full lineup organized by use case. Click any product to see specs, photos, and pricing on Swift Karting.

Engine Motor Mounts (LO206 & 4-Cycle)

If you are bolting a Briggs LO206, Briggs Animal, World Formula, flathead, GX200 clone, Honda GXH50, or Yamaha KT100 to your kart's rail frame, the motor mount is the single most important interface on the chassis. It sets your engine height, your sprocket alignment, and your center of gravity all in one bolt-on assembly. Odenthal's two main families - the EZ-Set series and the Pro Series one-piece mounts - cover almost every 4-cycle setup we sell.

Not sure which mount fits your chassis? Our deeper guide on How to Choose Your Kart Motor Mount Size walks through tube diameter (28mm vs 30mm vs 32mm), I-type vs K-type rail spacing, and brand-by-brand recommendations.

Motor Mount Clamps & Hardware

Every Odenthal mount needs the right clamps and bolt pack to hold it on the chassis. The two clamp styles - Wedge and Euro Cradling - cover both the older sprint chassis with a flat seat surface and the modern Euro-style cradled rail. Hardware is the small stuff that fails first, so we keep a complete catalog of replacement bolt packs, snap rings, washers, and stud kits in stock.

EZGP Camera Mount System (GoPro & SmartyCam)

The EZGP system is Odenthal's modular camera mounting platform built around a central 360 degree top plate. The plate clamps to your kart's frame, then accepts swivel arms, 90 degree pivots, and SmartyCam-specific brackets so you can position a GoPro or AiM SmartyCam exactly where you want footage from. Same hardware can shoot front, rear, side-pod, or chase-cam angles depending on which arm and pivot you bolt up.

For a step-by-step on positioning, mounting orientations, and how to keep your camera vibration-free at speed, read How to Mount a Camera on Your Go-Kart with the EZGP System when it goes live.

Universal Mounting Hardware (Airbox, Exhaust, Frame)

The universal hardware family covers everything that isn't the engine itself - airbox cradles, tube clamps for any 16-25mm tubing, frame clamps for the 28-32mm range used by most sprint chassis, exhaust pipe brackets, and the bumper safety clamp system. If you are running a Rotax Max, IAME X30, or any kart that requires a bracketed exhaust pipe or a sprung-mounted airbox, this section is where you will find the parts.

Quick Sizing Sneak Peek

Before you click anything, the most common question we get on motor mounts is which clamp size to pick. Here is the short answer - we measure two things: the outer diameter of one frame rail tube, and the outer-to-outer width across both rails. Then we subtract one tube diameter from the outer-to-outer to get the center-to-center spacing.

Kart motor mount clamp size guide showing 122mm overall outside-to-outside width, 30mm rail diameter, and 92mm center-to-center spacing for I-type chassis

If your tube is 30mm and your outer-to-outer is 122mm, your center-to-center is 92mm and you are running an I-Type chassis. CRG-derived karts use K-Type at 90mm center-to-center. Cadet karts and Birel AM29 are usually 28mm I-Type. The full chart with brand-by-brand recommendations is in the motor mount sizing guide.
