Briggs model 28 piston
« on: October 30, 2018, 09:06:00 am »
I just started building a briggs model 28 i/c flathead with the arc dog bone and connecting rod but i just noticed that the cylinder bore is 3.3 inches (83.7)mm wide when it’s supposed to be 3.4 inches (87.7) mm. So i was wondering what piston should i get? One that is short enough for the arc rod and just 3.3in wide. Maybe the briggs model 49 piston?

Any help is appreciated.

Standard bore on model 28 flathead or ohv is 3.4375",
the only 2 briggs engines that use 3.300" bore is 21 ohv horizontal and 49 intek twin

Did you buy an ARC rod??If you did what did you buy 6280 or6281,they are both designed to use the model 28 and 31 AVS piston ,you should do some better measuring of bore,i think you are mistaken!

Well i bought the 6280 rod and i have measured both the piston and the bore with a caliper and all.
But it always comes out as 83.7mm and thats quite a bit of difference from the 87.7 that it’s supposed to be. Maybe i should get the model 21 piston and try.

You will need the Biggs 792307 piston and 697099 wrist pin.
Good Luck
