* Just Another Flat Head Build *

#1
Just what the title says " Just Another Flat Head Build " I'm building a 1994 Briggs & Stratton 5hp cool bore engine, no big high rpm build here ...hopefully just a good sounding , clean build.:wink: I have a special place for this engine....and no its not for a build off !:laugh: Seeing how I'm getting older and can't remember che'ot any more this thread is a reminder for myself .:laugh:

The two engines I tore down ended up being cool bore blocks ( no steel cylinder liner ) so that's what I'm going with. Cool bore aluminum cylinder block and side cover have bushings.. not bearings. But both are in great condition !





And both are 94 model blocks.

Easy boys! My inner rage is so large... it has no beginning, it has no end! Don't push my buttons! If you do I will pollute this thread with the dual bearing I/C motor I am building now....or maybe even a pic of the billet I/C motor with the Edelbrock head, billet sidecover, Crane Cam...you guys don't want to release the inner flathead beast! :cursing:

Hey Rookie! Crane makes nice cams! They sucked in karting because they could not wrap their heads around the "slapper" type cams with their automotive background and were not competitive. I did not need a slapper cam in a minibike so it was the perfect fit! rather than buy the biggest cam and kill my low end, I chose a moderate cam that will get may lard but going! Too many ROOKIES like YOU have to get the biggest cam made then wonder why their bad a$$ motor is a dog! Flippin' ROOKIES!

Get 'em E! I will stop hi-jacking now and look forward to seeing what you do here! I know your skills are way above ROOKIE levels!
