I have a 5hp Briggs I’d sell you. I have to dig it out and look at it. If I remember right it’s a I/C. I have a grind 12 cam and high compression head for it too. If your interested I’ll look

Ok. Thanks again. Could I bug you for one more. This one should correct for my 1970 Roadster. It has the 356 carb, extended crank with bearing, lighting coil, dip stick. HS40-55282B. Serial 0280 08215

Thank you for decoding that for me. Is that information available somewher? Thanks, Again

Found this engine and want know how to tell what it’s supposed to be. Extended shaft, lighted, slant intake etc. Is there a way to look that up. HS40- 55410C. Serial 1118B Thanks, Eric

That looks great! Couple questions. How did you clean the parts? Everything looks brand new. What did you use for a crank shaft?

Yes you can but finding a lighting coil and flywheel for an early HS40 is a little difficult and pricy. But they do come up for sale. If you can live with the more square shroud there are more options out there. I’m no expert, But I just went through this. I ended up finding a 1970 lighting...

They are out there. Expensive. Good option is to find a snowblower. They are usually cheap and be converted over

Send them a message. They are super helpful for me. I used the paint code that had provided for the red for 1970 Roadster. I had a pant supply place mix up the paint. I used acrylic urethane. Came out fantastic! Color is right on.

Speaking of parts. Where can you get new parts for the Hs40? Pistons and rings in particular

Merry Christmas

Thanks, Again guys. Yes I know the squared housing is undesirable. It’s what’s been on there since I had it for about 34 years. So to me it looks normal. I do think about changing it though. I do have an early HS40. I’m not sure what to do with. It would need the crank tapped and the...

Great info guys thanks for the replies. Ok so not all bad here. I do want the Rupp to use original lights and bulbs so the coil I have is no good. But the flywheel is good. I does use CDI ignition or what I would call electronic ignition. I took the HS50 that’s on the bike apart and...

I went to an automotive swap meet this past Sunday and found a pile of crap snowblower with to my surprise had a to what I believe a HS50 on it with a lighting coil! I paid 25 bucks for it and lugged it home. I got it running and the light works. Question. There is only one wire. I was...

Did you sand blast those parts or something else?

Great Work! Cant wait to see it done

it’s worth putting some money into. You have a lot there. Just a FYI. There is a swap meet on Sunday May 6 at Rentscher Field in East Hartford. It’s an Automotive type meet but there is always small engines, go kart mini bike stuff too. You could probably fine a nice vintage Tecumseh engine...

Beautiful job!

Where are you located?

Just got this one for my 1970 Roadster from black widow motor sports. Super nice piece.

Nice! Thats a neat way to mock it up. I bet the pipe looks great
