briggs and aftermarket carb

[jesse8931]

So I have alot of 5hp briggs motors and have only really used one witch threw a rod with the governer removed :shrug: but anyways im cheap and have them so i want to use like a pz or mukuni clone on a few and wondered if any has a angled intake like a 45 degrees or close

Briggs made a nylon intake that's about 30 degrees.
It fits small tillotson carbs and H50 type carbs.

that may work do you happen to have a link to a picture or a part number

 

[5 Horse Fan]

I would load up a picture, but I have alot of things to get done today.
Here is the P/N: 691922.
When I first discovered this intake, I wasn't sure if a tilly would line up.
What I did was buy an intake gasket for $2.00 and was able to avoid buying something that would sit on a shelf for years.
The gasket is 692283, but double check because it could be the port gasket.:shrug:

 

[Bill Ellerby]

OutdoorDistributors.com carries the intake, lists for $30.38.

that wont work i may have to fab my own since the motor will be at an angle and i want the carb to be level

Talk to Yellowhand he might make you one for a good price.:thumbsup:
Someone else was advertsing about make custom intakes....it was under "clone parts" in the classifieds.

Thank you 5 horse fan:thumbsup: That's exactly what I need to stick a tecumsehH80 carb on my modified Briggs . I Just bought one for 9 green backs Briggs and Stratton 4 Cyc Snow Blower Eng Intake 691922 - eBay (item 180594813946 end time Dec-30-10 19:28:50 PST)

I have one of those intakes on a 5hp flatty I/C i just got. It fits my mikuni perfectly and it is level.

is it actually plastic?

 

[C9H13NO3]

Sure is, looks like a nylon composite with metal inserts for the threads.

 

[Modding_out]

wacky.....I thought about machining and intake from a block of nylon or dendrite cause it cheap and easy to cut, but i never did it because I thought it would melt.

Dang. rack and pinion steering now this intake. all these big companies are making parts that look exactly like What I mentally envisioned of making for my self :thumbsup: haha oh well, I would have never made any money off the stuff any way:laugh:

I've always wanted to make a "see-through" intake so I could see for myself what the fuel mixture looks like going from the carb to the block.

Neat idea, I bet you could do it by having two ends with necks on them and them connects those two two rubber couplings and a glass main tube. presto! make sure there's no air leaks though....to many joints........

JB Weld.

JB Weld.

I thought JB weld didn't hold up well to gas?

You might be right, but I've heard of people fixing cylinder head cracks with it.
Maybe there liars.:shrug:

 

[jesse8931]

I fixed a cracked block with jb weld and had an intake someone made using jb weld

I have a Tec. lawn tractor intake that's still holding with JB weld after 5yrs so unless they've changed the formula it holds up to gas pretty well.:shrug:

I was working on the same thing. heres a pic or two. I used a small piece of conduit. grinded off the coating and was going to weld it up. I eventually went another route.
