    I like the silver and the bling'n side plates. I know you said powerplant is yet to come but do you have an idea of which way you are leaning? 2 stroke, 4 stroke, 60 HP, 80 HP

    For right now i am looking at Al Hodges motors(all 4-strokes). I have checked on some Kohlers but Al Hodge is very close within 30 min. Monroe, N.C. The 30HP is a good deal, turn key.

    The Kohlers can get up to 80hp and turn very high RPM's. Right at this moment unless something changes my mind i will run the 30HP and then hope to move up in HP later on.

    I want to ensure that i have something to race with at Ash next year and this would be a good shakedown engine. I know if i go big from the start i am going to hammer it

    That 30 HP is plenty to HAMMER. Just enough power to get you into or out of a lot of trouble. I love it!!!!!!!

    Smile Just getting started


    This is the alignment tool Brian(Race) built for me he did a great job on this tool. Robbie (RDR) also made me one. I now have two!..




    The pictures are of the initial setup to center the bearings and measure bolts for the correct length.


    The frame has a 45 on each corner so spacers had to be made to accommodate the angle. These spacers came with the kit and work great! I am still collecting parts as i had no machine and now have a few parts Thanks to all the members that share parts i am finding what i need.



    I have started an excel spreed sheet to catalog all parts that will go into this machine by Vendor, item and item number. This might be a bit scary!

    The new seat cover will reflect the coming color of the Crush!! Seat is same color but is on back order.
