Ok guys,

I have read and researched and still drawing blanks.

I have an 2007 Max IV w/ 18hp Vanguard 125 hours. I have my max rpm set to about 4200rpm and try to only use up to 4000rpm. I want to upgrade to some larger tires like 27" Gators or something to gain alittle extra ground clearance. By doing this, I might like to have some more power.

What would you do if anything? Roger, I know that you will have some suggestions. I didnt want to call George Herrin and bug him yet.

I was thinking thinner head gaskets and steal intake pushrods, and double springs. I want the motor to stay in one piece with higher rpm's between 4000 to 4500.

You might even recommend a different clutch spring. I know that when pulling out quads the 18hp labors at a low rpm.

Everyones recommendations welcome!

Thanks,
Rutledge Fuller
