5Hp. Briggs & Stratton

[chuckbear1961]

Great work is it a .05 Hb Briggs?

[janandscott]

@chuckbear1961 don't know what the Hp actually is. it was scaled down .by 3/8 from a full sized 5hp

[janandscott]

@chuckbear1961 also if you like that video check out the other one on my page it is the model after it was finished.

[OGKILLa9365]

how dont you know hes a giant

[janandscott]

no i didn't. i think i may have either some autocad files or mastercam files. I'd have to check, but it would only be of the block and head.

[gwheyduke]

Very nice build. Did you make any drawings?

[janandscott]

@gwheyduke i'm working on reproducing the drawings now. i'm also thinking of making a casting kit. do you think there would be any interest?

[outdoorsman310]

@janandscott yes!

[janandscott]

@outdoorsman310 when i get something done i'll post it on here to see if anyone is interested.

[electriclzombie]

deficiently not 5hp

[gwheyduke]

You can buy a perfect recoil starter from a Hobby Shop. Look for one for a "Traxxas T Max Radio Control truck or an HPI "Savage X" would work nicely for this size engine.

[gwheyduke]

Sounds good. Nice Job!

[NorthSideCustomsUSA]

that would be a SWEET r/c motor

[pivotboy63]

put that on a remote controlled car that would be sick! btw whats the horsepower output?

[borderlineartistic]

@pivotboy63 3/8 of 5hp? lol

[fairyheli2]

@borderlineartistic 1.8hp, apparently

[muddymanify]

this is kick ass i would buy one lol

[MRGUBGUB1]

that cool

[SpiritsoftheWolf]

now that is awesome, now all you need is a minature generator to power up a small 15 watts fluorescent light fixture

[oOoxelAoOo]

That thing is cute :D

[kdknitro]

let me guess your a machinist? lol cool motor man

[CSAKvids]

You;re missing the shourd and pull start!

That thing is honestly amazing!

[janandscott]

@CSAKvids that video was several years ago. i have finished it and mounted it to a board. it has a brass shroud and i kept the old style rope pull starter. i tried to make a recoil starter but being that small i couldn't get it to work right.

i'll have to post a new video of the finished prooduct some time soon.

[jack9102]

co2 powered or gas?

[janandscott]

rtegular gas. it has electronic ignition and a regular miniature spark plug.

[Mccarronm04]

Now you must finish the task! Make a mini snowblower or mini gokart for it to mount to XD

Awesome!

[da7nesman]

@Mccarronm04 Smart Alec! Good response LOL! There is this one guy who made a scale model Ferrari From scratch with a scaled down V12 that actually runs LOL. Took the guy over ten years to make it though.

[AKAxAUTO]

even B&S couldn't do a better job! 500000000000000000000*

[anthacdc]

thats awesome

[ZippoVarga]

Sweet scaled down version! One of a kind for sure.

[robinhooodvsyou]

Does it have piston rings ?

[randomguy9898]

hahah you need a minipullstart for it!

[janandscott]

it turns between 3500 and 4000 rpm.

[robinhooodvsyou]

How many rpm:s ?

[30GB]

WOW thats so cool with you be making a cover for it and pull start?

[futrparakat]

that looks like a miniature snowmobile motor

[superfunnyman123]

is that useing a glow plug?

[janandscott]

nope that ia a real sparkplug. just in miniature

[1972FordF150]

is that really a Briggs&stratton engine??? and is it really 5 HP???

[janandscott]

it's a scaled down version. 3/8 scale. modeled after a 5 hp. engine

[1972FordF150]

ok thanks and that thing runs damn good oh and is it a 2 stroke or a 4 stroke engine????

[sdably]

4 stroke like the real version

[superfunnyman123]

to awsome! now you need a mini go kart or tractor!

[janandscott]

crankcase was machined on a cnc machine. head was also machined on cnc mill also the rest was built on regular machine shop equipment.

[Andalite789]

so basically its a billet mini engine?

[janandscott]

yes. all from billet aluminum

[Andalite789]

sweet its like a bad ass blockzilla motor for an R/C car

[gaspowerrules]

@janandscott what is the hp is it all 5 or 3/8 of 5 hp

[janandscott]

Probably 3/8 of 5hp. but i haven't figured it for sure. there is an actual formula how to figure it.

[dc5000123]

Way Cool Dude !!!!

How was it made?
