You'd probably want a chain and sprocket. Mainly to step down the rotational speed of the shaft and trade yourself up some torque.

I have seen a three wheeled go cart where the front of a bike was cut off and welded to a small piece of metal (i know that you didn't want to weld, but a shop would probably do that for you pretty cheaply). I had an excellent website about connecting a lawnmower motor, but I can't find it now. I'll try and look again.
You cannot put the engine sideways because it doesnt work like that, so you need to connect it through gears or somthing.
