Driveline / V- belts
« on: December 13, 2010, 07:09:12 pm »
Guys, just food for thought! Most are running 1/2" belts either mower belt or A section belts. The next size up is the B  section belt .66 instead of the .50 and the depth is greater also. The HP difference in these two belts are quite a bit, why not instead of throwing your old pulleys away cut them to accept the B section belt. You can go to Gates belts or just google V belts and theres all kind of info on Hp and RPMs.
Would love to hear some opinions on this. (I do know it will work)

Non-Affiliated Races / New track in N.C.

We just got back from the test and tune at Waynes new track in Whiteville N.C
and some of the best barbeque I've had in a long time. Thanks for the food and the fellowship, it was great. The extra water for the modifieds did the trick. You have a very nice track and hope to race with you some this season.
I just hate Sam had to miss it. I know Rex and Rex Jr. had a good time. Thanks again Wayne.

Briggs OHV & Vanguard / 44CID Intek
« on: January 06, 2008, 03:25:18 pm »
George, Don, Just took a 44CID Intek apart and the pistons were cupped
downward like a 35 or 38.5 Vanguard. Does Briggs make a flat top or domed piston for these? Also cut heads to around  .0080 is that enough
considering the heads are open chambered and not closed?

Briggs OHV & Vanguard / 40 CID Intek
« on: November 01, 2007, 11:46:06 am »
What if anything can be done to lighten the bottom end of a 40CID Intek? Just from my limited
experience with them they are sluggish off of the corners and on restarts compared to the
Vanguard v-twins. I have built several Inteks but no Vanny's. Also my brother Rex is kicking
our butts with his Vanny.

what are the pros and cons of soaking tires in diesel fuel to make them softer? Any input would be helpful.
