Bore can’t be more than .030 over, head can’t be shaved more than .050, and I can’t remember cam specs, but they were pretty big. Don’t want anything too crazy. Just looked, and I can’t run a solid flywheel over 22lbs in stock class.

Yes, same two tractors.
-
Live and learn I quess. I worked the oil patch and industrial services all my life. Never bolted anything together without never-seize.
-
Do you have list of rules for the class that you want to pull in? The cam I chose will pass the "stock" specs in the club I pull with. It may not pass for "stock" with other clubs.

My first gasket did not have a fire ring. Replacement gasket does have a fire ring, been running a long time with the new gasket.

Yep, my Dad was trucker that hauled Jeeps from South Bend to Baltimore during the war. That screw driver was in every tool kit.

Got a lot done today on the RJ should be ready to run it -
I mean if you read my name tag you'd know, and if you haven't noticed I do live on a funny farm

True

To me, unlikely without some sort or latch or “J” to ensure no slippage.

What a rig! -
@Achto and @TonyToro Jr. you seem to be the experts on this. What would be the best cam grind from Vogel if I shave the head down .50, maybe a solid flywheel, and run bigger valves? I’m looking to make anywhere from 22-25hp? I’m new so bear with me here.

I may have reproductions sold by Garret Wade or Lee Valley. AI says they were slowly phased out of production middle of the last century.

I intend to convert the remainder of mine to electric pumps this year, time permitting. I'm an emergency manager so some of what I do is mitigation. With regards to small engines with cam-driven fuel pumps, mechanical pump inefficiencies and fuel leaks into the block are reasonable concerns. An electrical pump minimizes those threats to some extent. At this point I think the investment is easily justified.

Im looking at a 502 with hydraulics, a front mount sickle mower, and a tub cart. What are base prices for them? Thanks

Tire Recommendations for steep, snowy, mud
Alrashid2 replied to Alrashid2's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
@wallfish I actually do that on purpose. I drilled additional holes in my plow to put it into what I call "Transport Mode". Couldn't stand the ~4" of ground clearance with the plow, so when not in use I tip it up to gain a few inches of clearance. Unfortunately, replacing the tires made me realize I didn't account for something: in "Transport mode" my plow just barely cleared the opening of my shed doors when going up the ramp. Well, getting new tires has changed things enough that now my plow hits when going back into the shed... ugh. I'm thinking taller rear tires = tipping the front end downward = plow now lower. I'll have to tinker to see if I can raise that plow at all, or maybe raise the shed ramp enough to clear it... always something! -
Here ya go. There was a dealer in the area that worked with Wheel Horse but that too has been repurposed.

went on ebay and found them have not seen new ones just used Vintage Made in USA Irwin perfect handle screwdriver. Those screwdrivers have history of been used in Jeep and Tanks tool kit. Hard to find in nice unused condition. Stamped: IRWIN-US of A.
-
Ok thank you
-
I have a fully built engine. (Cam,rod,piston,crank,carb,valves etc) and even after running it on the dyno, Save your money and use a stock one.
-
You sold me on this - interesting thread - never applied anything to my pre filters - checked every 10 hours or so used the compressor to blow it out ( off the air filter ) washed it out with mild soapy water - reused

Engine lift hooks?
-
Oh ok. Will a normal one hold? I saw yours blew after a pull.

I'll take five copies for my mother.
