Greentored 3,214 #30 Posted December 19, 2023 Would love to have a cam out of each and degree them out, the 20hp has GOT to be 'fatter'. .030 more lift on the intake sure isnt doing it. Whats interesting is Briggs did the same thing when stepping up to the big 46 incher- exactly .030 more intake lift. I have one of each of those, maybe need to spec em out just for the heck of it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
