Great build! God bless!

Use an adjustable machine belt.

awesome build 👏 i built a lawn mower engine to outboard lower unit build , looking forward to the next video on this one , keep up the great work 👍

Pretty solid build.. I made my own surface drive last fall basically using the same design, minus the gearbox.. hindsight, I should have added one to mine. Good looking project, can’t wait to see it finished

Did you ever finish this? Love to see finished results

Personally I’d make this a business there is a lot of people looking for smaller hp mud motor with fnr an when you build the tiller arm make it into a z an also make it float so when you hit something you won’t take your arm with it it’ll stay in the same spot an build something where you can adjust the tiller to a certain angle for standing while driving or for trailering where you can flip it all away up especially when your in the duck blind so your not sharing the tiller arm with you
