Hey guys....I really want to build my own long tail, can someone send me the plans. It would b greatly appreciated.

I dont know if anybody has plans but if you could have a friend bring theirs over you could measure and fab one in the backyard.

if you go on ebay, they have some guy that sells a book that shows you how to build your own longtail, it even shows all the material u need to build it. type in mud motor plans...

There plans must be pretty good have you seen how many they have sold and nothing but 100% positive feedback!

Do you really need plans to build one of these motors? It a shaft and a u joint on a motor. There are some really simple designs that dont even have a pipe around the shaft, just to bearings on it.

Yea I found some really good lookin designs....I'm just gonna go for it...I'm gonna get that 6.5 honda clone from harbor freight....ill post pictures of my progress.

I saw a video of a modded out 6.5 check into it, might sling some hp for as cheap as they are.

I have the plans and I also baught a 6.5 harbor freight motor, I have some mods Im gonna do to it also for the mods go to nrracing.com they have a couple of pretty good hop up packages

That is the engine I use as well. A harbor freight engine. They seem fine.
The only thing is they do not allow for a thumb throttle. It is no big deal.
I just reach back when I need to.

go to this thread, im planning on using this idea to convert from the throttle on the motor to a thumb style one on my handle

I am also looking for plans for a mud motor, i am building a Gator Boat co. Duck Hunter and need something to go on the back of it. I have never seen one of these boats or motors anywhere in Ontario. Any help would be great.

i built a motor off those mad mud motor plans not a half bad lil motor! but i used a 15hp lifan and upgraded the metal stock i used alot. do yall have any hop up kits for a 15 hp motor?

I am starting a build right now for my Carsten Bluebill. I am trying to keep weight down so I ordered a 6.5hp Honda Clone from NR Racing. It has 18lbs springs, marine use torque cam, Honda tank, open element air filter, highflow exhaust and no Govenor. Its dyno'd at approx 11hp and weighs around 35lbs... Still getting prop and steel together for build I'll post up pic's when done...... We have used Mad Motor plans with tweaks and love'm....

I have some kits for 5 to $600ea. Rich 573-776-5535
