kj4kicks 154 #6 Posted July 13, 2008 Ben, No need to get all defensive. Mike was asking a simple question. What you do, or don't do, with your tractors and engines is entirely up to you. When you (or anyone for that matter) posts plans about engine swaps, paint jobs, or whatever, people who are curious will always ask questions. Isn't that what it's all about? Sharing info and ideas is what makes RedSquare the greatest forum anywhere! E. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eldon, I meant no harm to Mike ( Sparky ) I'm Sorry Bud the other 16 HP K-341 did not work out the Choke Cable did not reach the Carb . so I put the M16 MAGNUM back on my 416-8 I understand everyone is here to one another out on questions or problems .

Duff 206 #8 Posted July 13, 2008 You know, guys, if the jugheads in Washington could only talk and work things out as civilly and openly as we do in this forum, this country would be a heck of a lot better off. Maybe I should ask my Congressman (he's actually a pretty squared away guy - we went to school together) to have a read through here once in a while as a "reality check"!
