Why go with a 5hp Briggs? Parts are too hard to find, and you would spend twice the amount of money than you would if you just dropped in 25hp V-4 Honda OHV lawnmower motor. Why would anybody want to build up a 5 hp Briggs? It would just sound like a lawn mower when you get done.
Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha.......and the jokes continue!!!!!!!
=========================================
: how much alteration do i need to install that 5hp lawnmower engine thats in my garage into my mav? will the i6 mounts work for it? do they make any aftermarket heads for those? i think once i get it installed i will install either a dual-exaust and twin turbo, or a super charger. or maybe a nitrous hookup. the possibilities are ENDLESS!!! im shooting for the 145s@13mph on the quarter mile. am i shooting too high?
: *NOTE* yes, i AM making fun of all the motor swap posts.
: Yes, it IS a joke!
: No, dont lynch me and steal my maverick! (you wouldnt want it anyways!)
