RULES ONLY SAY NO CHOPING THE FRAME. THIS INCLUDES WIDTH,WHEEL BASE OR LENGTH.
NOTHING THERE ABOUT ADDING TO THE FRAME AS LONG AS IT DOESNT CHANG WIDTH,LENGTH OR WHEELBASE.
HOW MUCH IS THIS TUNNEL GOING TO CHANGE THE LOOK OF THE MACHINE?
WHAT FRAME ARE YOU USING? WHAT CLASS ARE YOU BUILDING FOR?
I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A PICTURE OF WHAT YOUR DOING IF POSSABLE.
Here's a picture of what I'm working with. The red lines will be my cuts and that brown thing haha will be the top pulley of the jackshaft. Then I'll build a cover for it. It won't change the dimensions of the mower at all. It's a craftsman frame and I'm not sure on the class yet. It currently has a single ohv intek but I can get a v twin for free from a buddy of mine if I decided to go that route. The local track has a "stock modified single" and "stock modified twin". I just have the bracing in now and will be getting a solid front end this week. At that point I think I'm done until I can get wheels/tires for it so I can lower it and set the height.
Wouldn't be easier to just use a tunnel chassis?
yes....but I gotta work with what I got. Once I get my feet wet with this one and learn more about what I'm doing then I'll pick and choose my next one. This was free though so I have nothing but time invested so far although that's about to change.
