Alright, I'm building a jetpack and have hit my first problem. I need an engine. Does anybody have any ideas on what engine I should get that has a power output of at least 50 or 60hp and costs about $100 (Absolutely nothing over $200)? Weight isn't too much of an issue, but I'd prefer it to be close to 100lbs. Doesn't matter what kind of engine (motorcycle, go-kart, car, etc.). I think that covers everything. Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I will fly in it but obiously tethered. The way I'm trying to make it is by having the engine turn two fans.

motorcycle engine is the way to go but an R1 will bust your buget,honda 750 inline 4 should be cheap and plentiful

your going to fly in this? I don't see how this can be called a jetpack with a ice engine, you need a jet or rocket :)

use an R1 engine from a 1000cc liter sportbike. its 160 hp. and pretty light
if your jetpack works, i want one!
