| How in the hell is this thing the most active topic on the forum. It's not even a cool build. Anyways i cut out a spot in the clutch mount and now there's a lot more travel.  |

| Took her out for a short ride. She still runs fat. I mean, there's still a completely unnecessary amount of power, but it just doesn't run quite right... |

| Or maybe it is running right? Seems fine, now... Took her for a good romp down a creek bed the other day and she did wonderfully, no issues. Almost ripped the steering wheel off guiding her under a tree once lol. |

| i hate long trips on a ratio like that, ok for a mile or less, but when your going like 7mi orso one way even my 9"7" aint enough and i tend to keep my RPM's higher than i shold half the time. i really wish i had a high and low range, be what i got now for trials then something were i can hold 40mph all the time for the road. realistically i have to drive more like 20mph. |

| I was doing a good 25(the speed limit on that road lol) the whole trip. She goes fast for a 1:1 ratio. Big tires and ungoverned engine helps a lot. |

| That is pretty fast for a 1:1. Bigger tires and higher RPM makes a lot of difference cuz I get about 15 with around a 1.2:1 with 18" rears and a governed 11hp flatty. |

| Where'd yabget that blue Kevlar belt? Online? I've been to all the auto, farm, and parts stores within an hourbor more of me and never seen one. Been on Amazon and found some but never the right length. The rubber belts seem to last pretty long for me, but I have completely snapped new ones in two from clutch bombs uphill with only a 14hp engine. Wonder if the running fat thing is just the engein itself, I had the one that was doing that but swapped the same carb and left the same idle and everything on it and put it on a 20hp and it runs super clean and never sputters or puffs smoke of any kind. |

| TSC is where I get all my belts.
It won't run rich if I get a carb that I can actually tune lol |

| Really? Huh all I've found there is rubber or the brown belts for bush hogs, guess I will look harder.
I've had good luck with the untuneable ones, just takes tons of cleaning over and over again. |

| I was just putting Mutt in a different building but got sidetracked and went on a hour long romp lol.   Really like how she looks from above  So I discovered that the intake adapter I made fits snugly in this extra pool hose I have. Snorkel intake take II maybe?  |
