    ISO: Briggs 5hp "I/C" Engine

    Hey guys I'm looking for a Briggs flathead 5hp I/C motor with a dual ball bearing crank and side cover. It doesn't have to be complete, as long as it has the stock air shroud, and most of the motor parts are there, head, sidecover, and crank.

    Kawasaki FG300

    Anyone ever come across these? Do they make a good minibike motor? I've come across two of them. Not sure I should bother... Looks like 80's motors. They are flathead style. Like a Briggs or Tecumseh in outward appearance. They come from big fans. If they are particularly good runners...

    Flathead tach?

    So with the importance of not over revving our mini bike engines, does anyone make a simple affordable tachometer system for the old briggs flatheads? I would think that for safety reasons (those removing governors) a tach would be an invaluable item.

    Flathead in motovox?

    Has anyone here put a 5hp Briggs in a mbx10? I have a nice 5hp I/C that I'd like to put in rolling chassis. If it doesn't work than I figure I can go with the predator but I would prefer the flathead. Any info would be helpful. Thanks

    Hello, I have looked around the web for performance parts for an 8HP briggs, it's a 190400 model.
