Hi guys, I have been a long time reader of the threads here at Heymow, and would like to say thanks for all the info I have gotten over the past several months. I have been especially happy with all I have learned from George @ EC. Not only great parts...but great service too!
I am posting some pics for you guys to give me some feedback. I hope these make it on the board even though I don't race a mower...I have the same powerplant!!!
Started with a 2 x 2 steel chassis.....
Then I ended up with a frame that looked like this.
I use a Vertical Intek 40 CID upfront with a Noram V-belt clutch and roll the belt on its side to drive a jackshaft in the rear. The jackshaft drives a CVT transmission with hi-lo-and Reverse.
After I had the chassis dialed in, I set out to build a motor that would haul me around.....I have the ARC billet flywheel, ARC rods, HD Starter, Precision Cam, lightly ported/deburred heads, Custom intake with a Mikuni BN carb, removed the gov, added EC springs and retainers, added a tach and rev limiter. oil temp gauge and thats it so far.....
And here it is all done. We take it to Dumont Dunes in California quite a bit. Lots of crazy stuff out there too....I recently added a gun rack so my brother and I can do some hunting in it. Thanks for looking!
