Engine upgrade

When I got the 14 it already had been changed to an Onan that smoked like a chimney. So I grabbed an 18 Kohler and shoe horned it in. had to open up the hood on one side.

Thanks, I still need to do a little hood touch-up to make it suit me.

Straight pipe stack? that would be awesome. When I put a 16 hp on a raider 12 and just had a straight pipe it blew out this awesome blue flame. Anyone have any bacon?

I have consider stack, but these cans are nice and mellow. Sounds like a Harley when it idles.
