    @xGMM91x
    tecumseh engines dont last for what i put them through, B&S r the toughest, strongest, ball busters of the small engines

  • goraku20:

    @LynolsOffice go to ur city dump and ask for any Hor. shaft engines, i bought a B&S 40hp 4cylinder for about 100 bucks at my towns dump and i have it running on a dunebuggy

  • goraku20:

    @jcrongo1
    text me @ 4052693904 and i can help u with it

  • goraku20:

    @doggybag77 yes its possible but impossible at the same time, if u tilted the engine you would blow it up in seconds, i suggest buying a Vert. shaft gearbox, i have about 50 at my shop and they r made by wheel horse. its a small transmission, vert. driven but side shaft geared. it has R-N-1-2-3-4-5-6 gears and wont go very fast, but ive been tweaking with them and i put one on a home made Vert. Shafted go cart, if u need a pic of one text me @ 405-269-3904 and ill send u a pic, maybe sell one…

  • goraku20:

    @CowsXonXcrack depends on the brand of lawn tractor, most lawn tractor engines are vert. shafted, but wheel horse back in the mid 70′s-mid 90′s had a line of hor. shafted lawn tractors.

  • alan19861:

  • BUNCHofxs:

  • coyote5314:

  • ChevySilverado2500:

  • doggybag77:

    just curious does anyone know if you can turn a horizontal motor into a vertical motor for ride on mower use with little effort i have a sweet 16hp twin that was given to me cheers for any info

  • beexboss:

  • icedragon99115:

    that looks an aweful lot like a generator armature or part of one on the crank…

  • CowsXonXcrack:

    i need a motor like that for my gokart. and im guessing its off of a lawn tractor

  • murph1478:

    if the first 2 digits are 29= 12.5 or 14hp
    if they are 30=16hp
    if they are 35=18hp
    and if they are 38=20,22,24hp

    hope this helps.

  • WeSellYouTractors:

  • camarolover1982:

  • RonLaRocque1:

  • CSAKvids:

    I might be getting a vangurd 20hp v twin for about £50 most. Only catch is that it’s completely in parts. It’s all there though. :D

  • jcrongo1:

    That vaguard V twin comes in three versionsi am pretty sure. Theres a 16 HP, 18, and a 24. I have one at my school and it is a 24 HP but we cant start it for some reason not sure what’s wrong

  • Briggsmaster:

    i love those v twins 50 bucks! i need to find one that cheap

  • TheGeek1028:

    All 3 of those facts are true.
    Bible, fiction: Yes
    Good engine: Yes
    5 Stars: Uhh, hang on; Yes
    lol

  • LynolsOffice:

    No, I wish!

  • GearHead1625:

    have you ever owned a diesel lawn mower?

  • LynolsOffice:

    That would be nice if it’s a 16. The motor seems fine, but yeah I don’t like using starter fluid, I know it’s not good for it. This starter fluid supposedly has a lubricant in it, but who knows how well that works.
