Notice, Northern tool sells the generator heads as well as full generators.
How big a generator is your buddy looking to build? What is the plan for it? Continuous generation or standby?
Most engines are not designed for long term continous operation. Lets say a car engine is designed for 100K miles. If you travel 50 mph, this is 2000 hours. That is 1/4 of a year continous operation. Even if it is 300K or 400K, that means an engine rebuild every year. Better have 2 generators, and plan to do a lot of rebuilding.
