Good morning! So I have an odd one for you. My art crew and I built a 28 foot hydraulically driven pirate ship from scratch. we sourced a motor and hydraulics out of a 80's era scissor lift, built a hub-less 10ft dia. front wheel and built back from there... she now stands 41 ft at the mast and 9 feet wide at the beam. With a 8 degree tilt to simulate waves while she rolls along. We even managed to make a whopping 2 mph before her engine blew... again.

So now we are looking to buy a used motor to replace ours...

what we have is a wg-750 3 cylinder gas motor.

what we need is a similar sized replacement. Either:

wg-752

or the

d-902

I am not worried about what we get as I can mount whatever we need, I am however worried about size, it must fit in the space we already created for it.

and we need it ASAP! I have to have it installed BEFORE july 11th.

Thanks!

O and here is a link to a video for the curious...

also looks like a d600 would work, little less power but it will fit... I think. I have 20" for height... Makes engines like the 662 or 905 just slightly to tall...

Thanks again!
