What to build with snowblower motor

[sorefingers23]

I have an old snowblower that I want to tear apart and build something with the motor but don't know what to build. I'm sure someone here has a good idea for me.

How bout a helocopter?

 

[jmendez29]

How about a gas powered grain mill? That would be epic!

How many CC's What motor? Rotax?

edit...
Nevermind I thout it read snow mobile not blower. If you have kids build a go kart...

Whatever you build, keep in mind that snowblower engines are generally designed for use only in cold weather. They have looser bearings and are set up to mix gasoline and air at lower temperatures. They might not run too well for too long in warm weather.

With that in mind, build a gocart for winter use ice racing if you have a lake nearby that freezes sufficiently.

Gas or electric?

Sell it for parts and buy ingredients for a new batch of beer

You could give your snow blower to charity, most would be eager to pick it up.

I would build a snowmobile.

 

[MaxStout]

Donate it to a school that has a small engine repair program.

Or Craigslist it and use the money to buy beer.

A "gomobile." Basically a go kart built with a snowmobile tread & skis. Or maybe a sort of mini-snow track, kind of like the pic. Regards, GF.

...or a copy of Jim Hall's chaparral 2J "sucker" car? It used two of those engines to suck the car into the pavement for faster cornering.

I think the real question is, what did the OP do with it? This thread is only 3 years old.

 

[unionrdr]
