Attex 4 Stroke Swap

[Don]

Notice the first line on that page from R6x6?

"We took an old but nice ATTEX 440 Thunderchief and turned it into something useful, by doing a quality Briggs VANGUARD conversion..."

Something USEFUL? Just stay away from my collection with this trite propaganda garbage.

Calm down, Hmike. I think what the author was trying to get across was that the machine was now useful to him. If you hand a hammer to a chimp, he's going to hit things with it, but if you hand that same chimp a protractor, he's going to hit things with it.

CALM DOWN MIKE. "We feel your pain." Yes, you have a wonderful collection ideally suited for you, as I have mine. That other site just doesn't understand.
To be honest I did not even notice the caption.

Perhaps it's the context. For example, "My Lamborghini Countach is not as useful as your wheel barrel, but it is much more fun!"

Haha, oh jeeze. Anyways, at the Humphrey, NY ride I spoke with Matt Oxender and he told me how he did his 4 stroke conversion in his 4 chain Attex by angling the motor back just a couple degrees so it didnt hit on the engine cover. After seeing Matt's custom built hydrostatic drive 8x8 amphib I can see that he can really build AATV's. Again, thanks to everyone who has given me imput on this project. You have all been very helpful. I am yanking the frame this week and will start fabrication some mounts for the Briggs sometime soon.
