Default using a VW type 1 engine for a go-kart

Greetings all,
I recently acquired a 67 Type I VW engine for free, and just
happened to be planning on building a off road go kart as well.
Now, how feasable is it to use an engine with close to 100 hp for a go
kart? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
BTW, I am a welder, Aircraft mechanic and painter, and have a pretty
endless supply of tubing to use, especially chrom-moly.
