Man I would be so happy if i can get a hold of one of these.

but i also have a Briggs 5hp I/c block so if i wanted to have the broken piece welded back on and put dual valve springs in, and a racing head, which right now my 5hp has lots of compression, if you don't yank hard enough it will kick back and rip your hand off, but more valve spring pressure would mean faster snap back at high rpms, i wish i could also put a digital pvl ignition like this formula has, but i would have to have one that limits at a lower rpm, this formula revs up to 7,000 which hits the limiter, that is crazy high for a briggs engine, but its built to run that high.

If y have access to a lathe or able to machine parts, y can adapt any carb to a lawntractor motor - most use motorcycle or snow mobile carbs - problem with those is finding the right jets to make it run right- id like to take the carbs off my snowmobile and put em on something - ill probably sell it tho since its been in my shed at the folks place for like 6 years now.
