How hard can you rev a homemade twin suffolk engine

here we have my homemade twin Suffolk running a lot better with its new Honda carb for increased revy effect and cam driven distributor for a more reliable spark... sorry about the foot wear...

Very interesting to see people put their homemade engines to the test, not many do.
Great build!

Thanks man! Got to go till you blow!!

I've thought about doing this with 4 engines for a while now, but now I've seen this I definitely have to do it. A 6 cylinder would be absolutely bonkers! Imagine 6 x 200cc, 1200cc straight 6 in a go-kart holy shit I want to do it

[@lonewolfandcub668]

You should put this in a future power wheels build.

[@nickrudd2568]

You could make another into compressor pump if one cylinder was running but the other used souly as a air shifter into a tank.

Lol that wud actually work! I like it!!!

@@councilhousecreations8035 You should turbo it definitely and put the engine on a future power wheels build.

Do you think that engine would be good on a go kart

[@councilhousecreations8035]

Yeah it might be it revs out a lot better with that honda carb and it would be nice to put it through its paces a bit more

[@DevonFerguson.]

You did put it through its paces there. Also how to you get the crankshaft perfectly straight when welding did you do it on a lathe or something

[@councilhousecreations8035]

ha! I guess I did. I turned down the end of each crankshaft then made a collar to fit over them then just carefully welded about 10mm at a time alternating to different sides... then out came the hammer it was always gonna be. but I'm not too fussed this engine is just a test bed for a 6 cylinder i'm making so watch out for that :) it comes with a bunch of problems
