Which kit engine looks the most like a Whizzer?

Kestrel Motors Inc. · Nov 13, 2012

I've been thinking about the kit engines for awhile, and if I do end up buying one, I'd like it to look like a whizzer. I know they make the "Whizzer kit" that you can get on Ebay, but for 800 bucks, they're probably taking you for a ride.
I wanted to know what the most reliable engine I could get is. I've read throught the sticky threads up top but I haven't gotten through it all. I want to know your personal experiences and advice about the different kits, and engines.

if you want the whizzer look then you'll have to shell out the $800.00.
none of the china 2 stroke kits look or run like a whizzer engine in my opinion.
throw reliabilty out the window unless you get a japanese made 2 stroke, or a quality name brand 4 stroke.

2.5HP 98cc Lifan is probably the closest to a Whizzer.
It's a flathead side valve too.

MotoMagz is the pioneer so check out his build thread.
