The Strattonator

[JccBlazer]

The right side spark plug is not tight

[MrHickfarmer]

What state and county r u at?

[dawggg101]

is that RPM level safe? just curious

[MalliganTheUFO]

That sounded pretty good!

[ROMAN19795]

+++++NICE SOUND+++++

[PKMotoren]

Nice sound! :)

[manostihl]

is this one sold yet?

[TheRedneckboyy]

What did you do to it

[jmoyet]

I'd love to put that on a go kart. hehe

[coaxialgyro]

@pfuntner

I agree , theres the paddel oil splasher on the valve side plus the centrifugul govener amongst the internal gears for the valves and the points cam also. It has to run valves at the bottom half that'll doughtlessly leak oil through to the cylinders. I belive you can't run it stationary at least the wrong way up.

[Gibby1776]

i have 2 18hp opposed twin engines how to i make it so i can mount it on its side like a horizontal shaft? is there possibly a how to video out there whats it going to cost me some one message me back

[cxbra]

@Gibby1776 You technically can run a vertical engine horizontally, but in real life it will blow. Why?? The oil lubrication system doesnt work at all when its on its side. Sounds easy, ends up blowing engines.

[Alisterwolf66]

@Gibby1776 Your best bet is to just find a horizontal-shaft engine - the parts you'd need to convert a vertical to horizontal aren't available anymore. That said, it is possible. Blocks are almost the same (but will convert). You'd need the crankcase cover, sump, governor, oil pump, and all the associated fittings to convert it.

See for yourself - go to Briggs' site. Model number that contains a letter is a vertical shaft, all-numbers is horizontal (42A707 vs 421707, for example).

[darokkz]

It will go real good on a gokart, believe me lol

[jmoyet]

jeez sounds like a Harley! what did you do to it?

[kazkepox]

u say 2 hours later, where in florida do you live? 2 hourse is like panama city

[MavisRacing]

sounds like its running alittle bit lean

[Nza420]

@MavisRacing trust me, these things run ANYTHING but lean! I have a 16hp one that runs the same..

[highdeserthater]

at least i can spell other words right. i think. i blew one of these up once. there was some popup problem with the piston rings i guess and it started knocking real bad and so i shut it off added some oil and 10 minutes in it started knocking again and the left hand rod came flying thru the block. the engines was in a condition known as a "fucked state"

[mikeycomputer]

That thing sounds like a car engine! What model engine?

[BOBKB3NZX]

Briggs 18 twin cylinder, with no exhausts....

[DRNEGOLICIS]

im looking for one of these want one so badly my buddy had one and wouldn't sell it to me then he blew it up on his go cart running it upside down for fun

[rudolphna54]

Engines do that when running noe xhaust

[demonsparkx]

ya i no

[CSAKvids]

No, it just has a totally open exhuast.

It's a flathead anyway, pretty sure they cant be adjucsted.

[fghytijkio]

the spark plug comes loose at 10.

[mavoloproductions02]

that motor is b.a.

[B04rD3r4LiFe]

Can somebody tell me the name of this model i'm trying to find a good go kart motor

[69FordPickup]

Briggs and Stratton Opposed twin Flathead. it's a 2 cylinder flathead engine. There were three versions of this engine which were the 40,42,and 46 CID versions.

[BOBKB3NZX]

that is a briggs & stratton opposed twin. unfortunately they are no longer produced. horizontals are hard to come by anymore. i managed to get my hands on one but it wasnt cheap.

[HJ35371]

awsome sound!!! it sounds like a vw beetle:) I had one in my garage and just love the sound from the old car;)

[animebsd]

i want one i used to have one that threw a rod so i had to run it on 1 cylinder

[lk8915]

the sound is fuckin awesom

[triggerhappy77707]

Dual opposing cylinder? Fucking awesome.

[30GB]

fuck that this will make a great boat engine

[highdeserthater]

i almost talked my parent into buying me boat pland and one of thoes engines until i found the price. then i just said ferget it.

[82agwayldt11]

That's the same motor as what's in my race tractor. I've got true dual straight pipes on mine and that fucker won't quit I swear!

[SpiritsoftheWolf]

you need to slap this engine on a harley bike, it sounds sweet ....Body By Harley, Powered By Briggs

[jmoney321123]

where did u git that engine from

[kevjones93]

better open a window before you die or carbon monoxide lol

[gt350stang7]

its an 18 horse 694cc i got the same one on my gokart. check out my video of it. these motors kick asssss

[lazzer408]

Pull it open and advance the cam one tooth. Also advance the ignition 5-10deg.

[mitteey]

how much horse power is that

[LynolsOffice]

An oppossed twin on a go cart!? that things gonna kick ass! Cool!

[adb140275]

the sound alone kicks ass!!!

[heawycock]

i love straton engines !! :-D howmany cc is th ingine on

[adb140275]

i think about 796

[1skiinIan]

that sounds about right. a B&S 16 horse is 656cc

[1skiinIan]

ya, no shit. it depends on how long your stroke is, but seeing as briggs makes almost all their engines have the same stoke(distance the piston travels in a cylinder from TDC to BDC) that sounds about right

[CSAKvids]

i was just trying to clear it up a bit. Not everyone understands engines that well. Dont really see the need to be like that (N)

[paulbreor]

size dosent effect horse power

size would effect more of the torque

[vilimaaman]

how much did that engine cost you, cos im about to build a cart.

[suchfunstuff]

Good stuff there.
