40cc Briggs & Stratton trimmer engines!

I don't know myself if they would work or not, but they also have 165 5.2 Cu. in. (97cc) engines that are CARB and EPA compliant for $124.95. Item# 28-1623

I would stay away from the briggs. They have a cantilever crank and don't have enough bearing support to hang a sprocket on the end of the crank.
It is designed only to rotate a clutch not take a radial load.
 
yeah! overhung cranks stink!

they smell of cheap....

but, with a spigot and bearing on the other side of said sprocket to take the load, they can serve a purpose.... is it worth it? iunno...
 
I have a cold and my nose is stuffed up but are these the same or similar Briggs engine?

Have a look at that 90cc Sachs engine. Pictures make it look pretty narrow (pancake like), course it's hard to tell just by the pics.
 
PT Barnum would be proud. The 34 cc is doing good to deliver 1.1hp.The 40cc doesn't match the Honda GX35.

btw the Sucks 90cc is a two stroke...
 
Ive never used BRiggs on a bike or trike but I worked my way through college cutting grass and after having tried a Briggs mower I will never try again. I went through FOUR in a week. If I hadnt been dead broke I would have given up after returning the second one.
