TURBO 588cc HOMEMADE 3 CYLINDER ENGINE From GX200 Clones//Part 1

Back at it again! turning fuel into noise! in this episode we combine 3 different Honda clones from all over china to all sing along from the same hymn sheet!! and boy do they sing!!

[@TimothyWinchester-z1s]

I must say what you accomplish in a small homemade shop is totally amazing. My 2 teenage sons have got off the computer and video games and are puttering around in the garage because they watch your channel and and try to do things with regular simple tools and have a blast even if they fail at what they do, they are trying. Keep it up because you are getting people outside to do stuff instead of sitting around.

You gotta get a crappy ride on lawn mower and help them fix it up, make a mud or race mower out of it. Really really cheap and fun!

[@jram7047]

The offset timing did well for counter balancing when he revs up and I'm sure will aid in power being smoother. One suggestion depending on your plan of use would be to put a sprocket on the union of each of them connected to a jack shaft off to the side. You can increase your final drive axle to more appropriately handle the power your making vs using the output shaft of a single engine . I don't think it will handle the power without breaking.

[@danielspoon1234]

good point

[@ianbuilds7712]

You're probably right and what will happen for sure is the flywheel key on the output engine will shear... I did a double engine using the flywheel to couple the engine(s) together and that was an issue

[@_..-.._..-.._]

These cranks are overbuilt even on clones, doubt you could break one.

[@wazittuyoo2147]

It all depends on the application. The merry-go-round at the local park? Fling little shites off in a heartbeat, no problem. Light weight drag bike? A bit sketchy, but prolly ok 4 promotions an, such. But repowering a tractor, or the like, break the power into smaller bites an, run it to a jackshaft.

[@fuhkoffandie]

Yep, you're close to triangulated Rod journals. I know, because it has that signature Geo Metro 3 cylinder sound. You should really fire them 132, if you're not already. Hey, got a tip for you. If you're going to use couplers between the engines, check out Kawasaki 550 jet ski couplers. They have a Rubber Biscuit in between them, they move in less than one degree total, and it really helps to smooth everything out, especially with misaligned crankshafts. They are extremely forgiving, and can handle an easy 50 horsepower each.

[@bennybonesplays7143]

I'm dying to see the rest of your build with this. This video has given me so many ideas for similar builds. Great work here

[@kayhaverkort4220]

Sounds good! During half the build I was skeptic thinking this was just going to be 3 separate engines bolted to a frame next to each other. But after the addressing of the timing, I was beginning to think what's a multi piston engine other than multiplie engines put together. Quite the eye opener and rabbithole🤪

[@oikkuoek]

Spark no 3 is a bit late/ exhaust valve leaks. Remember to add fuel pressure accordingly. Those couplinks are very clever!

[@brainiac_brian]

Really amazing! Nice work! To be honest, i was waiting to see how far it would walk from balancing problems. You just proved one doesn't need 50 million bucks in designs and engineering to make something work and work well! I'll be watching to see if you can find out the horsepower on a dyno. Those couplings are a genius idea! Kudo from Texas USA!

[@bryaniskoo]

Put the exhaust into the next engines intake. That'll be the real turbo 🤠

[@leolebarre35]

Cush Drive? What I mean, really, is you could use a disc of rubber cut from the sidewall of a tire like a rag joint on an old steering shaft, to couple to crankshafts together, which would give you a lot of flex and torsional strength and soak up any misalignments vibration and such. But definitely cool AF. Love those GX engines, they're bulletproof and so cheap.

[@clayton458]

One thing I noticed was when you cut the hole in the cooling impeller, you filled the whole intake with the coupling. It has nowhere to suck air from. Pretty cool project though!

[@martingardener90]

Interesting build. The one concern I have is that all the engines are driving through the last engines crank and output shaft which was only built for the power of one engine, personally I would have put sprockets between the engines and run two chains to a countershaft - time will tell!

[@councilhousecreations8035]

Hey bud how's it going? That is a concern of mine, one of many, but at the time I wanted to keep the engines as close as I could get them. Putting a sprocket in there would space them out a bit much for my liking, and even if u had a large sprocket to go over the coupling the chain would be going so fast and noisy. The worst part about it is the other two engines have the bigger 20mm style output shaft but the one on the end where all the power goes is only 3/4"... Doh!!! Only noticed when I was putting it together lol. Might put two uj's on the output shaft so it's only torque load it has to deal with, like the John deer's have, nd have a clutch further down.

[@martingardener90]

@@councilhousecreations8035 Well - it's a project and projects are about making something and seeing if it breaks!

[@rockymoney7742]

That's my first thought. Even if one engine is not running it would still be turning at speed putting extra load on engines that are running and there is really no way to harness all of the horsepower and torque out of all three engines the way they are set up. All that being said it's still bloody fucking genius

[@TheEvanovitch]

I worked alot with gx160 engines, and did some tuning for kart racing, the crankshaft can hold surprisingly much. Its not optimised for performance so thats why there are performance aftermarkets crankshaft, but they should be plenty strong enough. The big end is a completely different story. Seen many engines like this blow up with conrods exiting the block sideways, valves snapping and punching holes in the piston while the crank was completely fine.

[@clintdenman3037]

Hi my friend i have a Harley Davidson that is really souped up but the rear cylinder keeps destroying spark plugs but compression is maybe a bit higher than normal but rear cylinder keeps on playing up if you have any additional advice I would really appreciate it.

I did this with 2 engines and it was fun, I could change the sound based on the offset in timing. 360 degrees off and it was buzzy and quick revving like a parallel twin, 270 degrees off and it sounded like a v-twin and had a mean idle.

[@K-Effect]

When I see engines linked like this they are usually connected with Chain Coupling, also called a Double Sprocket Chain Coupler. A roller chain sprocket is attached to the front of the rear engine and the exact same size roller chain sprocket (The other half of the chain coupler) is attached to the rear of the front engine. When two engines are mated front to back the roller chain sprockets faces touch each other. Then a double roller chain is wrapped around both roller chain sprockets to connect the engines together. Repeat the process to connect more engines

[@tracycearley5669]

hey bro thats way cool ,just a suggestion tie the exhaust together 3 into one might help it run alittle better or maybe not 3 into o e but if it goes into expabsion chamber then narrowz back down again gives it some back pressure helps suck in the fuel i think

Put them all on one crank pin with a master rod and you’ll have a baby radial engine. Do it with 4 two stroke cylinders and they’ll all fit to one (wide) crank pin. That needs a blower to start but makes power when running. A turbo helps.

[@fuhkoffandie]

What you should do, the correct way, is to triangulate the crank. V8 engines are triangulated crankshafts, except for Indy cars, which have the 180° crankshaft.( 180° apart from each other, in a line, creating two separate four-cylinder engines) If you look down a V8 crankshaft from the front, you will see that the journals are all positioned in the shape of a triangle, irregardless of which one fires when. The correct way to do it, is the first one fire @ tdc 0°, then the outside one fires @ 120°, then the middle one fires last, @ 240°. They do this to Virtually eliminate harmonic torsional vibrations. Think of it like this: press three keys on your piano keyboard starting with the left one, then middle, and then right, you will see as you go faster, it goes from left to right. This straight line effect, causes torsional vibrations. Now press first key , then last key, then middle key. Now the vibrations are staggered and mixed up in a more complex pattern, no longer going from one side to the other. Basically, it makes it smoother. Or.....you could make a seriously vibrating, obnoxious thumper, keeping them all at 0°, lol😜👈

[@paradiselost9946]

getting a bit confused there. a v8 with 120 degree crank offsets? interesting.... and a 3cylinder, it doesnt matter what order the crank is if its 120 degree. it was a nice explanation with the piano keys, but sadly... leftmidright is no different to leftrightmid. think it through...left rightmidleft rightmidleft right... see it? its just backwards. all you can do with three.

Bet you with that low rev ceiling and pushrod design, this thing'll def be a torquey, if slow to rev engine. Might be more suited to offroad use or make a fun and weird drag racing machine. Though that turbo depending on if you can get it tuned right, might turn this from pretty rad to downright silly. Cant wait to see how this goes.

Great design especially with the 60 degrees offset. A set of long headers should sound like a F-1 3 cylinder.

[@paulkurilecz4209]

Nice job. One thing not mentioned is that doing a three cylinder engine is the best part of this creation. The reason is that odd numbered inline cylinder four stroke engines are naturally balanced. That is why you did not see the frame "walking around" of have significant vibrations. One thing to watch out for is the welds where you joined the crankshafts. They may eventually break due to fatigue. PS: I like the name of your channel. The question that I have is a shop in a council house a step up or a step down from the workplace in the archway of a railroad viaduct? PPS: I think I will start calling the things that I put together a council house creation. 🙂 PPPS: There is a guy, in Finland I think, that took 8 of the old flathead style Briggs and Stratton engines, chopped them up, cast a crankcase and machined a crankshaft among other items and built a V8 engine. You should check it out.
