Nah Ken- You need a 16hp big block thumper that I have sitting in the tent out back....That will show him !

Nice job. Great to see it not all cut up. (Wouldn't expect it from you anyhow). Awesome Cole is really into it...Dad as well.

Today I fabbed up a much better belt guard that resembles a stock guard. (I didn't want to hack up a nice original guard)  It fits perfect and works nice. After it was installed my son Cole hinted that it was time for a little race, his Rod against my Rod. Long story short, he skunked me, not once but twice! He had 3 tractors on me each time. I even jumped the gun in the second race. Man, I hate losing!

There's no substitute for cubic inch displacement...

of course he skunked you Ken.      

 

   Congrats     Cole!

I beat a few big blocks with a small block in my day.....Coles tractor is governed, mine, not so much. I thought i might sneek by him on the high end. Not! All in fun, he earned it. If yer gonna get beat there is knowone better to do it than your own boy. If the K91 didn't run so good on my Rod I'd probably sneek a few more ponies under the hood of mine....

I do have a k141 I could possibly stuff under the hood for a little more grunt..  Though I'd really hate to scratch the paint up on my tractor doing a tight motor swap. The paint is pretty smooth on it. We'll have to where that one goes.. There is also something to be said for the sound of a K91 with straight pipes, they sound so sweet!

Well executed. Looks like a stock setup. Dr. Mike prescribes a nose weight!

There's plenty of room up front for the battery.
