Some of the people on the forum already run these motors in club cars ( gavclassic) and have better idea on performance gains

The 7k motor block is a bit wider then the 5k you have and you will need to change / modifiy your engine mounts do some searching on people's builds and see what they have done

Its probably the best use for them as you can use the torque rather than revving them out on a race track.. The long stroke means they won't rev as high as a smaller over-square K, so keep that in mind when picking a cam. Same with carbs, get smaller rather than a bigger option to maximise the airflow velocity.
