Schwinn Occ with 70's briggs flathead?

does anyone know if the 4-stroke mounts that come in the kits work for the briggs 3hp, I might save it for a different bike, maybe a cruiser frame that has more room.

They are just shy of working with the kit mount, the slots need widened to work with the briggs or there clones.

would it be more beneficial to get a different engine, maybe a kit, it would be easier, and probably cheaper.

If it were me I would get the harbor freight 79cc predator or the 212 harbor freight predator, then get a comet 30series TAV & make all my own mounts.

I don't have much money to go around, so I think it would be more affordable to just order one of the "100cc" kits

Are you wanting to stick with a 4 stroke? Somebody sells a 100cc 4 stoke kit, well it's actually 97cc if I remember right, & I think it was around $320-$350 but I havent researched it in a while.

I was thinking the two stroke kit, but would the 4 stroke be better?

No you can go 2 stroke be cheaper & easier for you in the long run, plus somebody makes mounts to put a 2 stroke in the occ frame.

I LOVE THE 100CC ENGINES!!! More than enough power for a bike, if you do it right you can get 8 ponies out of it. I prefer 4-5 ponies, ot's a bike frame, to many ponies will eat the frame. lol. I had though of putting on one of my utiliy engines, till I tried the 100cc steel sleeve. Now it's about all I run anymore. They last forever, produce a good amount of torque and ponies, plus they are under $200 bucks and easier to mount up than a 4 stroke, and lighter, and more powerful.

Only down side, they don't get as good as gas mileage, but close, as a 4 stroke and you have to mix oil.

Oh and they look way cooler, more motorcyclish than a 4 stroke.
