B&S Big Block in a Hustler

[6X6]

Hi Meinfield:
Looks awesome, sounds even better!

How did you take care of your sprocket issue with the T-20? I will be throwing a bunch of HP at one in my Attex racer, and want to know how you stopped them from stripping off again? (If you didn't spline them, did you get a price on doing so? I would love to be able to change gearing with removal of 2 snap rings and the driven clutch only)
Thanks!!!

Been wondering where ya been Chris. You and the machine are quite entertaining. If you run out of mods to try, install the carb spacer that isolates each barrel. Mine has always had the stock spacer on the 2 bbl. I tried a spacer open in the middle, and it ran lousy. Idled like it had a radical cam, and killed it's low and mid range. From about 4000 up it ran similar. Aparently it likes the tuning of seperate runners than the reversion, etc of joining them.

Hey Roger,
I will give that a try, thanks for the tip.
I got a set of vampire ASX "jp swift specials" that i need to mount, they are huge 26x13x12 tires! They ought to hook up pretty well in the mud, and they are good swimmers.

Mark, I will snap some pictures of the exhaust and post them in the next few days.

I ended up TIG welding the sprocket, the hub was just too mangled to try and have it splined. As far as gearing, if I had it too do all over again I would run small axel sprockets and change out the two drive sprockets to adjust gear ratios. My machine is still geared a little low, but to go higher I would need to change all six axle sprockets. A bit pricey. I think this could easily be a 60 mph hustler with higher gearing..scarey, huh?
Keep us posted on the racer!
