168 cc honda motor

[byQ]

Anyone ever built a log splitter starting with a lawn mower motor? I have access to this honda motor. Is there a reason these vertical motors shouldn't be used for a log splitter build?

Thanks Jags, I'll go spend the $15 to get the motor and store it for a later build effort.

No sweat - its not like lawn mowers don't break down anymore. Plenty of engines out there.
