I was surprised - to see that the site hasn't been updated since 2005...

I didn't see anything about an engine for under $100 either.

I would indeed be very much surprised to find such an engine
available
for that price, unless it is a very simple model engine, as opposed to
one that might be used on a weedhopper.

There are least three (3) weedhopper Yahoo groups:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/weedhopper/

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WUPA/

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Weedhopper-Ultralights/

The third appears to have fallen victim to spam, but there
may be something of interest in the earliest postings.

Perhaps he was looking at a weedwhacker website...
