how much does a job like that on a motor cost, generally, not trying to get in your business, thanks.

Hey Robert,
The oil pumps on the Briggs large bore engines are fairly robust. I do run a pressure gauge and it maintains 25-40 psi, so no problems there. You should be OK on your Kohler. Summit has good prices on small low amp transmission coolers like the one I installed. Be sure to use either braided hose or transmission cooler line, you don't want it to leak! Mine pushes air out of the engine compartment.
Hope this helps,
Chris
Would love to see the Dyno results if your willing to post them. What type of fuel are you going to have to run? Thanks
Thanks Chris, I apprecieate the info. and will try to keep you updated on the system that I install...Originally Posted by Meinfield
I never got around to running the engine on a dyno. It is likely in the 50 - 60 hp range, maybe a little higher. I kept the compression to 10:1, so it runs on premium pump gas.
Hey rustler and onlyonce, I don't mind at all sharing info with you guys. When I called Midwest I talked to Julian and told him that i was putting this engine in a 6wheeler and he said that somebody was going to get hurt because of the Hp, but the hp that he was talking about was 70 to 80 hp. I told him that i needed it to be around 45 to 50 and that I wanted it to run on pump gas. The work that he did was a little over 1,800, and I sent him a box of engine parts that my brother gave me. I think the V twin engines are good all around engine because of the torq to weight ratio and if you are going to build something that is a four stroke, than i would choose something that you can build up in the future. When I put this engine in i will be putting large tires and try to keep the weight down as much as possible, but if i need more power,i know that with the v twin engine i can get it, by maybe adding a longer stoke or something..
Very cool but with 52.66HP somebody is going to get ....to have some fun.
Thanks for posting the Dyno results. I was anxious to compare these against those Mike posted on his racing 600 engine.
Those are nice numbers...you might want to add a seat belt to your machine.
Mike You know how much fun 70 hp isVery cool but with 52.66HP somebody is going to get ....to have some fun.
