i was wanting to get some of your advice and experience with harbor freight enigines.. i bought a 11 horse for making a longtail and was wanting your advice as if it willl hold up and work great for my scenario?

buddy of mine put a 6.5 on a wood splitter. Starts everytime!!! Seems to be a good motor and a third the cost!!!

While you are there they sell a motorcycle wheel balancer that works great as a prop balancer great for prodrive or other threaded props you may want to check it out and it isn't expensive.
