Briggs 5 hp parts

[EagleTalons]

What parts do I need for my briggs 5 hp to do about 4k-5k safely?

I'd also like my engine to last a long time. I am going to put a 22VM mikuni on it too. It will rarely hit those speeds.

Right now my engine is in little pieces on my bench, just needs the valves taken out! Then it will be ready for my homemade hot tank!

Also I'd like a site or sites of were to get this from.

Thanks guys!

Engine will run at those speeds (and higher) safely "as is".
I get 5k to 5.5k with no problems. Don't free run, always have a load on it.

agreed, but if you want to be on the safe site get a better dipper, or a rod with built it dipper.

Never had a problem in 30+ years.
Only time I've seen problems is when engine has been molested...such as torque values being ignored when re-assembled.

Thats why i said "if you want to be on the safe side".

Oh ok, that's good news! I'll just get a raptor rod, some intake components for my 22VM, a coolio air filter and a gasket set! Need some header wrap too, cause header a little close to the tire.
