Briggs & Stratton v-twin kit?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Junkyard Wars : One Thread

Does any kit exist to make a v-twin engine from 2 5hp or similar single cylinder Briggs and Stratton engines? Something with 2 seperate blocks and a single crank case like a Harley v-twin. Thanks.

I've thought about such a thing but have never seen one. We used to run two 5 horse motors on go karts back in the day, but they were connected via a common jackshaft, not in a v-twin configuration. Have you considered a briggs Vanguard V-twin?
