My neighbor built this little engine in the machine shop in his garage. He built everything except the cylinders, which are some old Briggs cylinders if I remember right. He built everything including the transmission. Notice the little drip oiling system mounted back by the rear cylinder that feeds through the copper lines. Also the U-shaped intake manifold that feeds from the carb on the other side. You gotta hand it to this guy, he is one hell of a machinist and fabricator.

  • Looks like he adapted the heads and cylinders from a model Y Briggs.

    Amazing work!

  • @SmallEngineMechanic He did mention the top end being Briggs.

  • this is SWEET! is this one of a kind, or will you build more? interested!

  • @OZOREMEDY I will ask him for you. This is my neighbors engine, I just filmed it when he stopped in my driveway because I was amazed by it.

  • Any more pictures or videos of this thing?

  • @amfan12 That's all I have up close. I have another video, but all it shows is him pulling out of my driveway and driving off. I tried to get as much detail in this video as I could.
