Cutting racing costs in Super modified class Part!   dealt with NEW SMALL INEXPESIVE, RELIABLE, TURBOcharging kits  made for 600-1000cc engines. 500$ cost all inclusive + porting & regrind cam 100hp @ 5000 RPM ,  MUCH Cheaper than current normally asperated  briggs/Kohler V-twin set up .
Example of  100hp new small turbo kitted engine  set up :

1 STOCK Briggs 20hp v-twin = 1000$
2 Camshaft regrind             =  200$
3 Forged pistons                =  300$
4 Billet aluminum forged rods = 230$ Includes bearings
5 Copper head gaskets        =    40$
6 New Small/mini Turbo kit    = 500$ All Inclusive =oil pump, oil cooler, fittings, lines , boost gauge 
7,port heads ?                    = 100$
8 VM 34mm mikuni new ebay  =100$
9 Mini sponge air filter           =  10$
10 rubber carb boot to turbo  =   10$
   TOTAL 1990$ SUPER MODIFIED 700-750cc BRIGGS V-TWIN RACE ENGINE 100hp @ 5500 RPM 15LBS BOOST

    USING 35 HP 993cc BRIGGS VANGUARD V-TWIN  ADD roughly 500$ =2690$ using 10-12 lbs boost 100hp@5000 RPM more Displacement lower RPM = even more reliable AND turbocharging adds torque.

Even if you add anouther 500$ for special digital dakota head temp guages(trail tech makes same 30$)
still ???? WAY cheaper 1/2 price of  traditional normally asperated set up.

 Trying large displacement flathead set up this summer .

NEW small MINI turbos work MUCH better than the T-3 units (designed for autos ) spool from idle up. linear power band =no lag

SEE YOU TUBE VIDEO ...TITLE : CUSTOM TURBO MINI CHOPPER .... USES BRIGGS 700-750 cc V-TWIN WITH  MINI  TURBO RMB31 , NO LAG  SHARP LINEAR POWER BAND

 ..I have noticed ..CHANGE/NEW THINKING  IS SACRILIGIOUS but  not trying to re invent the wheel , just make the wheel CHEAPER and actually more reliable from Lower rpm .


 LASTLY 2 SIMPLE COMMON SENCE  RULES SHOULD BE IMPLEMENTED TO MOWER RACING . .... 1. ALLOW THE USE OF STOCK BRIGGS 35HP/993cc V-TWIN  AND KOHLERS 38-40HP CH1000 1000cc V-TWIN. 2.ALLOW THE USE OF SIMPLE 38MM-40MM MIKUNI CARBURATORS THEY COST ONLY 50-60$ NEW ON EBAY..SIMPLE CHEAP SET UPS TO HELP SPORT BECOME MORE AFFORDABLE IN THESE TOUGH TIMES........HAVING  TO TAKE 20-23 HP  V-TWINS THEN BORE CYLINDERS.BUY INSTALL  HIGH RPM PUSH RODS, ROLLER ROCKERS,STROKER CRANK RODS, HIGH LIFT CAMS , RACE STAINLESS STEEL OR TITANIUM VALES WORK HEADS ECT ECT .
 I am 48 years old semi retired and fairly well off some would say. So I can afford a total works race engine . But I CAN REMEMBER BEING SO POOR I WAITED FOR SOMEONE TO BREAK IN MY HOUSE ...SO I COULD MUG THEM... LOL  2 BASIC COMMON SENCE RULES WOULD MAKE IT EASIER FOR PEOPLE TO ENJOY THE SPORT .


WELL IM ..SURE THIS POST WILL BE ERASED OR I WILL GET BOOTED . SO i WISH  YOU AND YOUR FAMILY HAVE A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY AND A GREAT RACING SEASON  FOR THE UPCOMMING 2014 SEASON 

 How many people use cryogenic  metal treatment to stengthen there engine components?

We have had great success  with the process.

Actually its 3 builds   1. 60ci  air cooled briggs v-twin to power  1936  Harley replica . briggs engine without shouds looks like its from 1920s  High performance/High compression pistons, cams, rods , carb, valves, rockers  ect fully modified . A company that builds performance briggs engines stated engine should  make roughly 75 hp at the crank.
 2. 45ci briggs v-twin   fully modified a above  engine.  This is going in   pro chasis  to race next season . HP unknown? 
 What HORSEPOWER AND TORQUE DO THE SUPER MODIFED MOWERS MAKE/RUN???

3.   THIS IS THE...VERY.. UNIQUE BUILD .... THE BRIGGS 60CI(993cc) liquid cooled briggs v-twin.
 this engine has had CRYOGENIC METAL TREATMENT,COATED FORGED PISTONS AND RODS, 10:1 compression, TITANIUM VALVES , RACE SPRINGS, CERAMIC ENGINE BEARINGS, KEHIN RACE CARB,PORTED,POLISHED HEADS , STEEL RACING CRANK , FEBER RACING RADIATOR AND OIL COOLER,  STAINLESS  HIGH FLOW OIL FILTER ECT ECT.

 QUESTION  HORSEPOWER& TORQUE OF  DRAG RACING MOWERS? UNLIMITED MOWERS?

 THIS ENGINE IS TO POWER A NEW ..HARLEY DAVIDSON  ULTRA ELECTRA GLIDE  WITH 6 SPEED  BAKER TRANSMISSION.

 ON PAPER , THE UNDERSQUARE COMBUSTION CHAMBERS AND 90 DEGREE CYLINDER ANGLE  IS ACTUALLY A ..BETTER .. ENGINE FOR A TOURING MOTORCYCLE THAN THE ORIGINAL HARLEY ENGINE .   THE BRIGGS DESIGN DEVELOPES HP& TORQUE AT A LOW RPM COMBINED WITH THE UNDER SQUARE COMBUSION CHAMBERS+LOW BOOST TURBOCHARGING  CREATES A WIDE LEVEL POWERBAND ( LIKE A MACK/CUMMINGS ECT DIESEL) IMAGINE A HARLEY WITH NO VIBRATION, STONG EVEN POWER AT ALL RPM AND TWICE THE POWER.

 QUESTION: HORSEPOWER& TORQUE OF UNLIMITED  BRIGGS DRAG MOWERS & SUPER MODIFIED TRACK MOWERS.
WE  ARE LOOKING FOR HP/TORQUE FIGURES SO WE  DONT UNDER ESTIMATE STRESS AND MISS A WEAKNESS IN THE ENGINE . THANK YOU PAUL END

 With all the small engines in the world today  you would think that there is a rod for anouther engine that you could swap out directly that had bearings .  Flathead Harleys have same bore (3.4375)  so it got me to thinking with all the rod problems with opposed  with a little reseach(alot of research lol) there might be something on sheves and we dont know it.... Jake

 I  read that in  a mower enginee flow is better than compression why not have both? if you use a cam that has has both high lift and duration why not throw in a  dome piston( Irealize the piston  has to be higher on one side than the other conturing to the head )  ive seen pistons   like this before ?   .... is no one running high compression ?  Jake

  I read g-team was selling conrods for the 40 and 42 opposed flatheads(jan08 post from g-team) does anyone know if they are still available? .The basic design of the opposed is better than the v-twins being its a real twin not a twingle of the v-twins. (one crank pin on two cylinders , both pistons rise and fall together like a single and the whole top end has to be balanced with the crank) At our local track the v-twins have been snapping rods like pencils. And the 28s dont produce enough power to win.... if g-team no longer sels opposd rods does anyone know of any other distributor. thanks Jake
