No keyway on a tapered shaft. Sorry to rain on your parade.

Surplus Center is legit, used them many times with no issues, great pricing on stuff like bearings and sprockets.

 

[r97]

prob so cheep because tech is out of business, no gas tank, and its surplus center!!! if you buy it please note, the crank is tapered, and it has a reduction box, you could prob fix all that with a js, and a few fancy sprockets.

EDIT: i take to long to type don't i? lol

 

[Bluethunder3320]

haha, so, there is no way to fit a clutch on a tapered shaft?

 

[Bluethunder3320]

what about this one?

[redsox985]

That could work, it just has a strange stepped shaft. That could be turned down though. Preset throttle? Does that mean no revving from lower rpms or that it's governed.

 

[r97]

and how much does a hf 6.5 cost?

 

[Bluethunder3320]

no clue, but i would take the gov out and attach a throttle right to the carb butterfly.

they cost 130 at my HF

 

[redsox985]

and how much does a hf 6.5 cost?

But it's a tec! Add a tank and air filter and you've got a far better motor.

 

[Bluethunder3320]

far better motor.

absolutely.

i have a 6.5 tecumseh that needs lots of work and i may just get this one and then use the other tec as a parts motor, at least i have valves and a con rod thats still good.

this would go in my pit bike.

 

[redsox985]

That may be your solution to the split case.

 

[r97]

some techs are really annoying, but most are good, mainly its that crank. you sure parts are transferable?

 

[Bluethunder3320]

That may be your solution to the split case.

you talking about that headbolt problem?
no, thats my 8hp briggs.

@R97 some, probably.

 

[redsox985]

Wait was it your bike that completely destroyed its case? It's late and I'm in a fog.

 

[Bluethunder3320]

yes. the 2 stroke bike.

nevermind about the briggs i was lost.

and so am i.

i cant sleep.

maybe i wont have to go to church if im tired

ya barely works.

Fill your mouth with as hot of water as you can take then say you don't feel well and go to mom with the thermometer just after you spit out the water and take your temp. and show her that you are sick and have a fever.

 

[Bluethunder3320]

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

What is this- Ferris Bueller's Day Off?

That's great- 'till the themometer reads 110*F and the ambulance shows up because she think's you're going to die. She's right. 'Cause once she figures out your scam, she's gonna KILL you!

 

[redsox985]

I've been told I look like Ferris Bueller (Matthew Brodderick).
