GT 14 pulley size

Recommended Posts

Howdo chap's, a quick question for you..

 

Would it cause any problem to the GT's trans if I used a 4 3/16 " engine pulley from a KT-17 (Ex C-175 that ran an Eaton 1100 trans) instead of the 4 3/4" pulley that's on the GT's original engine?

 

Any thoughts Guy's?

I don't think so - the transmission is more efficient at the right revs, but unless you are tilling/mowing, etc and need the power most people go for saving gas and run the engine a little slower.

For your purposes I don't think it's a big issue.

Thanks Mark, I don't plan to do any tilling, but I do plan to use the GT for mowing..

Try it and see I guess..

 

The fun part is going to be getting the pulley off the remains of the KT engine....   But I have a 12 ton press and a plan :D
