Another 15 HP
« on: May 26, 2007, 12:08:17 pm »
On my 15 HP OHV Command, is there any small things i can do to increase power,
more so torque wise. For right know i am waiting for a new tranny and go kart axel
so i thought in the mean-time i would work on the engine a little. :)
The rest of the mower is done, i will post pics when i get a new camera.

What class will this mower be racing in? Then we can see what is allowed and not for mods!

As long as it's a V-twin it can be B/P...

If it's a single it would be C/P...

That's the way the rules are writtten...

Yes I understand but with a kohler like he has those are the most buildable motors with roller rokers and everything so he could run with the twins.

Yes... But, he couldn't run with the BP class. The rules are very specific in stating V-Twin.

B/P: All overhead valve V-twin 4 stroke engines, 20hp and under.


I don't care how buildable it is, you can't run it in the BP class. End of discussion on the matter.
