I have a 98 30ci twin vanny(16hp).  Can the stock rockers handle the pressure of the dual springs that ec sells?

Post your Pics! / looking for pics of a John Deere super mod
« on: January 29, 2013, 10:54:36 am »
I had picks of a super mod with a John Deere paint scheme but now I can't find it.  I have googled, yahooed and everything else with no availe.  I wanted to look how he had his Nerf bars done to his finders and the shade of green used, it didn't look quite like J.D. Green. Does anyone possibly have a pic.  I know it's a long shot, but it was a beauty.  Thanks

Briggs OHV & Vanguard / Vanguard Valve springs?
« on: June 27, 2012, 12:39:53 pm »
Are all vanguard v twin valve springs the same or are the 23hp springs a little stiffer than the 16 and 18 hp springs?  If they are all the same, who offers a good single valve spring that is stiffer than stock.

Chassis / What Class could I run in?
« on: May 07, 2012, 09:49:22 am »
I race at a non-affiliated track and we have our own rules.  I race in the v-twin stock class which is a stock 16hp vanguard with the govenors taken out, nothing else can be done to the engine.  My chassis is an mtd box frame, sets 2.5" off the ground, 42" wheel width outside wheel measurement, stock wheel base.  Finders are homemade aluminum fenders painted to match the hood, 8" wheels on back and 6" wheel up front.

With what I have what class would I fit in in a affiliation like arma or one those affiliations?  Thanks for the help.

« on: March 15, 2012, 02:22:33 pm »
Anybody have any good pics of how they widened their fenders, especially on a box type frame.  I am going to widen mine 4" and would like some ideas on the best way. Thanks

Briggs OHV & Vanguard / Fuel Pump?
« on: March 15, 2012, 09:24:43 am »
Ive got a 96 30ci vanny that I purchased and it doesnot have a fuel pump on it.  The '91 30ci I currently have on one of my mowers has a pump.  Did some come with a pump and some didnt?  If it didnt come with a pump can I put a pump on it with out any ill effects?.  I like the idea of a pump but there are several guys in my class that run gravity fed systems without problems.

Chassis / Mr. Akerman
« on: March 13, 2012, 01:35:46 pm »
I really hate this Akerman feller, he is a pain.

I am building a new mower and outside to outside tire width is 42".  Is there any tried and true lengths and measurements I can use to guarantee right Akerman or is it a trial and error deal.  First mower build and I am taking pics and I will post them in the build thread when I get further along.  Thanks
