Chop a SA 200

OK.How small can you chop a sa 200 to?Make in small as possible.either you LIKE BACON or you're WRONG!!!! "There are three kinds of men.The ones that learn by readin'.The few who learn by observation.The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence for themselves"-Will Rogers
Reply:If you swap the engine for one of them Horrible Fright engines and change the generator to a inverter and use light leads you can get it small enough to fit in a Japanese convertible car.One of the MessFit geniuses can help you with the electronics and it'll be able to burn 1/16 rods.Add a thread spool from a sewing machine and call it a gas drive MIG.
Reply:5" is doable with the original fuel tank and would require a custom radiator or sacrificing the battery box.Have seen 8" chops but they require a custom fuel tank in addition to a radiator and/or relocated battery.This was a 5" chop with $500 custom radiator:

Reply:Can you show me how you did the gas tank? I’m having trouble with mine
Reply:The machine owner did most of the tank mounting and I just added a couple finishing touches.
