Need Harbor Freight Help
Within the last couple of months, one member (can't remember who) posted about an upcoming sale at Harbor Freight in March. The sale item was a 6.5hp horizontal shaft engine for $79.00.
I searched, but I can't find it here or at www.harborfreighttools.com. Can anybody remember where it was posted?

Thanks for the PA info, waynev. I found that engine at PA, but I'm going to be in Oregon soon, so I thought I'd grab one at that price from HF.

What are you going to do with that? Put it in your minivan for a little more power?

If you're gonna grab one, make sure to use the HF 20% off coupon, because it's good for sale items. I found mine in a March 2010 Car Craft magazine. I also found them online at http://www.harborfreight.com/hftusa/...mages/20_c.jpg

I haven't made a firm decision yet, but I have a few ideas. I'll be sure to post up my madness as it unfolds.

Harbor Freight has several locations; check out www.harborfreighttools.com and click on the Retail Stores link to find one in your area.
I have good cheap fun in there.
