alright bought this gokart used and im not sure what model briggs this is i think a flat head but not sure. if you need better pictures i can post more but not untill morrning because its too dark to take photos.

I would say 5HP Briggs flat head. But seeing that the intake and exhaust have been modded and the throttle rigged to the carb, I'd say it churns out more than 5HP and is pretty fast.

yea its 5 horse and i had a friend in the go kart raceing community fix it up for me he put all of the aftermarket parts on. it goes alot faster now that its been fixed up.
well thank you for informing me what it was exactly this will be very helpfull in the future when i try and get parts.

it is a flathead.

there also should be a model, type, and code numbers.

the first 2 digits of the "code" would be the last 2 digits in the year it was made.
