cast

I thought the Briggs guys would like to see what I picked up last weekend at an estate sale for a whopping $15 dollars. The engine is pre war and built from 1938-40. It had been parked in a garage for 30 plus years. I found out why, the spark plug wire had worn through where it went through the...

Was looking at performance parts and found a cast aluminum high performance rod. I have seen these in a few places. Any one run these. I found a stage 1 kit that has a PLV cast flywheel, 18LB springs and the heavy duty aluminum rod. I already have a billet rod and my flywheel but am wondering...

I notice that Box Stock motors now come with a T6 heat treated cast rod. Has anyone used these? I know they won;t be as strong as a billet rod, but are they stronger, more durable than the stock rod? Original Box Stock Project 6.5HP OHV (196cc) Engine

Cool cast smaller chainguard. is for the standard bolt pattern on Briggs and Tecumseh and I guess most other engines like the hondas and clones that have the 4 mount holes in the sidecover. Bolt holes are inset a little too for close mounting if needed. $25 shipped

Purchased recently at a garage sale. When and what was it made for?

How far is too far too bore my i/c motor. .150 piston would bore the sleeve out but would .120 be cool?

I've had this ('61-'62) Super Savage for about 3 years now just sitting in the corner. Somebody ( a long time ago) had put a little 4 cycle REO engine in it. It was cool but not correct so I sold that off and began my search for the proper West Bend 580 motor. Now there are West Bend 580's for...

I guess its time to post this, I wasnt going to, but decided others might enjoy seeing it. Its the first time Ive done a complete flathead build so there was lots to learn. I traded some cyl head, crank, and clutch machine work for a 68 Bonanza roller and 2 Tec H50s...Thanks Randi! This engine...

Picked up a nice old go-devil but the fuel hose connection broke off the cast fuel valve. Am looking for a good original or a replacement. Anyone got one?

Looking for 2 set of mounting studs for the cast type champion rocker arms. A dealer sold me 2 sets of rocker arms to go in a clone 6.5hp engine but did not send me the mounting studs , said that he didn't have the studs and would have to order them. didn't make much sense to me but that's what...

I've been working on this for a few weeks now, and with the help of Nate (nd) this is what We've come up with....Its a ruff cast , but with this cast I can do the needed repairs and make a good cast to repopp these covers. Remember this is a 1 off first cast. 13 inch Fiberglass . Input...

Does anyone know the correct valve stem to guide clearance? Also has anyone removed the stock cast iron guides? If so how do you remove them. Wondering if they can be pressed out or if they are cast in and have to be machined out.

Hi all, After losing the bidding on an H35 Tecumseh I decided to go and hunt for a 5hp Briggs. I have been looking for multiple months now and I think I have found one worth buying. It's a cast iron bore, presumably an 80s motor due to the magnetron coil, and air filter. This engine...

picked up a home built mini chassis has this really neat 8'' cast aluminum wheel any body recognize its origin ? thanks

Hi guys, new the forum, I'm looking at purchasing one of the cast aluminum clutch covers on OldMiniBikes.com but I can not find out any information or pictures on how it mounts, I have a tecumseh HS40 engine on my 1971 Bird I just picked up. Can anyone shed some light on the subject? Thank you!

Here's a neat old cast aluminum clutch guard for Tecumseh.....probably made by GEM or similar aftermarket company...would look cool on a little Taco...Flexo...any vintage bike really...or a vintage kart! More of a chain guard than a clutch guard.... Don't see too many of these anymore...

I cant say to much I dont want some one to scoop this baby up from me but she's a runner and cheap but she's not pretty think hatchet face. But I just cant let such a rare bike pass up.

Just got a bike with a 5 hp briggs with a CAST IRON bore It runs good just wondering if it's a special engine or just a runner! Are these the type of engine that can be made to run better than a regular 5 horse because of the cast iron bore? Thanks FRANK
