how much for the newest, best looking one of those gas tanks? I live in college station

it says 5 horsepower briggs and stratton in the picture, don't you want the model number or something? Briggsandstratton.com

you don't have to make it enclosed. There are numerous dune buggies and other vehicles driving around in Texas that are completely street legal. Also I have never heard of anyone ever having to have their chassis inspected by an engineer, maybe that's the wise thing to do but I doubt it is...

That's pretty much what I'm asking about right now ^^ I know all that stuff is doable that's why i'm seeing if anyone has actually done it

go to briggs and strattons website they have a whole thing on engine identification and downloadale pdf's for part numbers. You should then be able to go to any lawnmower parts store and order whatever you need. That definitely looks like a briggs and stratton 5 hp motor

hmm good I do have all the old receipts. And it'd be nice if they made it easier to find a complete list ofwhat is required. Do you have a link that could help educate me some more? I'm from Texas if that makes any difference on the regulations you have researched

in the for sale section

Has anyone ever done this? I'm wondering if it's worthwhile to get an old chevy alternator and get a setup working. Here's some requirements I got from the DOT website. 1. Horn 2. Windshield Wipers 3. Mirror 4. Steering 5. Seat Belts 6. Brakes (system) Parking - (beginning with 1960 models) 7...

bmikarts.com is the cheapest site ive seen so far. and They have great clearance deals and fast shipping

yeah, i even tried the thing you use to remove your oil filter on your car that tightens as you try to turn it more. It's perfect because its circular but it doesn't budge

I cut a large square plate of quarter inch steel and drilled holes to fit. Did the same for the jackshaft mount. It's not too hard to make yourself, just need something to cut steel (preferably an oxy cutter or plasma cutter) and something to weld. Just make sure you measure everything right...

Try turning the screw all the way in until it stops, then retract it about one and a quarter turns. Try and start it and retract the screw a quarter turn each time until it starts, idles, and runs correctly without bogging. I don't know what you mean by something attached to the band brake. I...

I can't get mine off, so it's not much of an option. This thread is now a very good resource for me and others for future builds though

Lol i'm sorry but are you serious? There's comet 40 series all over the internet, and they are rated for 8-18hp: 1" crankshaft diameter. i have a 40 series on my 11 hp briggs. They're A little pricey but it's worth it. I bought mine about 2 months ago from gokartsupply.com

It's probably be best if you read the sticky just above this post about your fuel system

get me a plane ticket to tennesee!

Wow that muffler is pretty small. I've just tried removing my muffle and it won't budge. Nothing short of cutting the straight pipe and trying something drastic. I may just keep it the same.

paint will come later, my sister wants to do it haha at Diesel - The ball is coming out of the socket, not the thread part of the joint falling out. I'm not sure if we are talking about the same thing. But I'm gonna try and squeeze it to be tighter

@Walter Yeah post pics and I'll let you know if I'm interested. I'd love to see it. If not I'm probably going to try the coke can exhaust and post a vid when I'm done. Issue is the exhaust I have on right now is insanely rusted and I may have an issue when removing it, so we'll see I'm hoping...

I have an 80's or older B&S that was missing lots of stock parts and the exhaust was fitted by the previous owner. I know Honda's are famously quiet engines stock but I need to make my engine quieter since I don't have the option of buying one new.
