    Tecumseh H70 Billet connecting Rods!

    Let's set the record straight....the original pics of the broken rod were mine and were plagiarized. The broken rod was in a NOS H70 that had been turned up. The failure occurred due to lack of oil when running 5000rpm and above....that is why any engine I own capable of 5000+ rpm get synthetic...

    Briggs never made a drop slant..... 90 degree are still available via Tecumseh for same aprox price. The early 70s minibike industry was the only user(most likely) of the drop slant type intake. The USA made minibike industry has been gone for too long for Tecumseh to have kept that item...

    No to bash anyone here but have any of you attempted to have any sand casting done? Have you tried to have an item manufacturered? The machinery that is required to make the items is mega millions of $$$$ The people operating the equipment get a wage. You don't work for free. The company...

    rupp black widow

    Jesse, the bike is an early 1972 Rupp Roadster....early 72s had round holes in rear sprocket, motocross rear/trials frt tires and red was a factory color in 72. 72 was the start of black frames on all Rupp minis, unlike 71s that had color matched frames

    rupp black widow

    Greg, Tom Peterson of MN won the bike with a free ticket he recieved from me through a promo I was running. Tom's sis lives in STL and is visiting Tom July 4th weekend. Tom asked if I would bring it to my house for his sis & brother in law to pickup. Once Tom gets the bike we will have some...

    Rupp XL 350

    Yes and they will work fine if you replace the original brake cables with QUALITY cables.....I stress quality due to so many cheapy cables having poor casings which absorb too much energy that should be put to the calipers. Example....bike when new.....you had to drag your feet to help get it...

    The new Rupp

    The Roadster 2 did have a Dellorto and a straight pipe over the counter accessory. With them on a Roadster 2 you get the best of both worlds.....speed/sound of a Blackwidow and lights of the Roadster 2. The Dellortos are quite simple with VERY little to go wrong with them. The engine being...

    Rat Rupp Roadter 2

    The TC unit is great...3 to 1 low gear, 1 to 1 high gear.....won't ever get that from a clutch. Minis of yester year used 5/8 wide belts. That is why I had a 5/8" clutch made to fit Rupp and Speedway. You need correct length belt as well due to the Rupp engine not being adjustable on the motor plate

    roller chain

    Use quality chain and avoid the Chinese types. Home Depot, Lowes, Tractor supply, Harbor Freight, and others sell Chinese. Look at links and see if "china" is printed on them. 30-40 yrs ago you bought USA made chain for quality, now you can hardly find it. Japanese made usually is quality. I...
