Just doing some math and this motor puts out 2.7 hp per cubic inch.   :2thumbs:   that's like having a 440 with 1200+ hp.    


First, where are you getting the HP numbers from??

Next, time for a calculator, buddy.. 440 X 2.7 = 1188. Not 1200 PLUS !!   :D
Either way, it's a long ways from the 6HP B&S I had on a cart many years ago..  ;)

It's right around 425-450 lbs.   :scratchchin:  so that's 4.5 hp per pound.    :scratchchin:  sounds high but I guess that's right.   
Sorry I was wrong.    :slap:  
It's about a quarter hp per pound.     :rofl:

Okay Steve, it's 100hp and 36.5 cubic inches. 
That comes to 2.74hp per cubic inch. 
Times 440 = 1205hp.    :nana: 
Now go read your birthday thread  :rofl:
