leaf blower powered moped

I was thinking about making a moped engine out of a leaf blower

to attach to my bike. If anybody has any personal experience or

know how to convert it, that would be great if you can e-mail me

instructions or a web site. I would appreciate any replies.

P.S. I first got the idea from a different forum and they said

that leaf blowers can power a moped quieter and faster with the

same amount of horsepower as a trimmer or chainsaw engine. It

was also mentioned that they could travel about 50mph with about

a 2horsepower engine. I have been looking for that forum ever

since. If you want a lawn trimmer powered moped, you can look

at www.carrprecision.com There they have already made engines

and kits that you can order for about $400 for a ready-to-run

engine. They go around 25-30mph and get about 300mpg. GOOD

LUCK!
