    winch motor

    No you dont have to use a controller if you dont want to. This is my electric scooter I made, Uses a ford style starter solenoid. Full go or nothing. Way less wasted energy with the solenoid but no variable, But even if I had a controller I'd be WOT all the time anyway:roflol: My thread...

    Remove metal plating?

    You can remove the entire low oil sensor from the block and that little gold colour box which the low oil sensor plugs into. All you will have left after that is the shroud kill switch and the coil ground wire.

    Lawn-Boy Mower Madness

    $200 complete with mount and motor isnt really fair to Russ at all. Look at just the shear materials. As far as I remember he used 1/2" plate 6061 aluminum, Probably a good 1 sq' All the fasteners required then his own time ontop of that. I'd say it'd be easily into the $400's Then to make it...

    Anti-Seize compound is your best friend. Or else thing slike hubs/sprockets,rotors ALL seize on extremely tight. Apply the silver Anti-Seize and parts will just slide right off many years later.

    Victa mods???

    Hes been dynoing/porting sled motors all his life. Trust me, He knows what works and what doesnt. Sure Boyesen reeds will make it a little more snappy on the bottom here and there but V Force 3 reeds are by far the leading reed manufacturer. Go on a sled forum and mention Boyesen and see where...

    Victa mods???

    On the dyno there hasnt been much of a increase over Boyesen VS stock. V Force 3 reeds are a awesome product and prefered by many racers. This is coming from a guy with over 30 years sled engine building experience.
