That clutch is a really nice well built piece too

Ok George, you have been running this chassis style for a few years, and had good success with this one this past year. Have you come up with any new tweaks for this, or does the basic build design still fit to a "T". You also said after the build, that is was your best build so far. Has it turned out to be your best racer as well?

[George Herrin]

I am aboslutely 100% happy with it. I have ideas for changes, but I always do. I am always looking to make it better. BUT I am happy with it enough I am not building a new one for 08... Just strip and repaint maybe!!!

Hi george

WELL this is the diagram with the eception of my brake light circuit. I use both a key switch and starter button. Two reasons. Main one is is I am doing a show where kids want pictures I can remove the key which kills power to the start circuit completly. Now kids can climb aboard and take pictures and have a good safe time. ALSO it gives me an alternate means of shutting it off and starting it.

Thank you so much YOu have no idea how much you have helped me build this mower. At 18 its a lil difficult and dont have the money to do all the experments and you have saved me a ton of money by all the info that is on here. Cant wait to see you at one of the ARMA events.

So there is no noid on this u just use the key ur is the noid built into the key switch?
Also is the lil swiggle line a inline Fuse??

[nor66]

I am not George but I am sure that is a fuse in line, if not there needs to be!

[George Herrin]

I assume noid means solenoid. Yes I use a solinoid but its part of the starter which is the denso high torque starter. As for the wiggly line that is a 20amp fuse. You always run an inline fuse. And always put the fuse as close to the battery connection as possible to protect the entire circuit.

Racers I post this stuff for all to see to share my knowledge free of charge to help you the racers. That being the case you may use info and share info from these posts freely. BUT I will not permit anyone copying this info then turning around and selling it for profit. I don't even mind you using it in build clinics. BUT give the information freely as I have done here. I hope everyone understands my position on this matter. If you know anyone selling this info please let me know.

[markiemark]

do happen to have any pics of your shifter? Im trying to fig out the best way to make my shifter so i can get this thing ready to test and tune.

When you used steel tranny pulleys how did you keep the pully from falling off. I have tried set screws but they dont stay tight enough. Im using a weld on pully from TSC and the hub is too big to use a snap ring. Thanks

[George Herrin]

snap ring is all I have ever used.

I am not George but the clutch setup was designed and is sold at E.C.. Thats some more of Georges craftsmanship and design. Looks and works SUPER.
