The Rat Rod Wagon is a BEAST

We just stuck a "new" 5 horsepower Briggs & Stratton engine on our Rat Rod Radio Flyer Wagon, and it runs like a champ! Combine that with sweet gas and brake pedals and recent shaft drive conversion we made, and we've got an awesome looking and running rat rod go kart.

I need to see an engine race. Draw a big circle in the driveway, put two running engines with race numbers on them in the middle, start them up, and place bets on which will vibrate itself out of the circle first.

You guys are a crack up. I'm currently undergoing my Briggs and Stratton Master Service Technician courses, I'm a technician at a Brigg's authorized service center. We get these L heads in on some antiques that come in. I can't stand these setups, with the carb bowl in the tank, those carbs are ridiculous. To call this the "last, good running briggs 5hp flathead in existence", is a bit of a stretch, however, you're right about parts availability. I can get most stuff, however those carbs are like hen's teeth. If you can even find one, they're over $130. Kudos to you guys for messin around with em, this is a cool build, but those old L heads are still garbage, lol.

Shave the head down, use an oversized compression ring and file it to around .010 gap maybe .007, use a 3-1/2 hp Briggs aluminum flywheel and make an adapter for the coil, 3 stage header, get a cam for it or at least reduce the lifter gap to get more lift, nylon or billet oil dipper, tillotson carb. It'll run good!😁🤓

@draggonhedd 8 жыл бұрын

Possible solutions for front tire grip: -Wider, stickier front tires. -Lower tire pressure up front, more in the rear. -Bolt a 30-50lb lead weight to the front of the frame somewhere. -Move the rear axle further back, to just outside and behind the tub. This will move your center of gravity further forward, improving front grip.
