Any Briggs and Stratton flathead gurus hang out here?
Ive got a little 3 hp briggs .
Its a flathead , and runs great as is.
No governor , NT carb, open exhaust, etc.
Id like to replace the plastic camshaft with metal.
Good idea or bad?
I realize the plastic cam might turn faster (lighter) , but I am concerned with durability.
Should I leave it alone, or replace with a different cam?
If I replace camshaft, any recommendations on a source?
Thanks in advance.
