meadowfield 1,900 #2 Posted May 23, 2016 Other than changing the bore, there isn't a great deal you can do. Cheaper to put a bigger engine in first 1 Cgoligher990 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C-101plowerpower 548 #3 Posted May 23, 2016 fastest thing you can do to get more power out of that engine is removing it and put a bigger engine in place instead. offcourse you can rule out the governer and risk over revving it till the build in rev limiter kicks a hole in the engine. 1 Cgoligher990 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wallfish 698 #4 Posted May 24, 2016 Seems like you need a 16 hp engine 1 Cgoligher990 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ian 2,417 #5 Posted May 24, 2016 A bigger Kohler engine is certainly the fastest/easiest/cheapest way to go.. 1 Cgoligher990 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
