Will it start with starting fluid?

Pretty cool freemason badge

Happy Thanksgiving

Rupps usually have a longer crankshaft on the PTO side. The pinrepair website has a ton of info on converting snowblower engines over. I would never put a chinese OHV engine in a vintage minibike but lots of people do it.

Does the light work when connected to power/ground without the switch? The switch might be an issue. You say there are 3 prongs on the switch, i would test the switch with a dvom and see what positions are on/off.

Kinda thought so when you said 11k RPM. I used to spin my flathead over 10k but my engine guy said to keep it under 9 grand lol. My bike is geared for 80mph in the 1/8. No way am i going 80mph on a minibike with 6" wheels. Maybe when i was younger and braver

Are these flathead or OHV?

What is this engine going in? If you don't mind me asking

Any pics? That sounds cool as heck

Nice job

I like the stainless paint. Kimball Midwest also makes a similar product that i have used in the past with good results. Never painted an engine block with it tho

That lifter bore area is a known weak spot on those

I have 2 Hs50s with H35 shrouds, so H35 shrouds will fit as well.

So i have to ask- if you have a lathe, and can turn down parts, can't you just make an axle?

I would just lose the alc carb and put a reg gas carb on it. Save the alc carb for if you want to run it, or sell it to someone who is running it.
