Lots and lots.  You can make these babies scream.  Check Ec and talk to Ryan.  Depends on how much money you want to spend but it is one of the best motors to build.

All vanguard 20hp hi performance parts will fit he 16hp. They work great. I know because I'm running 16hp on mine. Flywheel part # is 6611-VG. Call and talk to George.

Then no, there are no internal performance parts for that motor.

A model 28 is not a true vanguard. The Vanguard single model number started with a 26

It is basically a Briggs mix-n-match decal thing....put a sticker on a engine that says Vanguard...now we can charge the consumer more for it, type thing. I have one also. It is a regular old 28ci synchro balance engine inside, but the tinwork is a bit different, and says Vanguard on it.
