Re: SnowDog - new motor tow.
Well, I finally got a chance to look these 4 strokers closer :shock: I reviewed a lot of video's and I tell you. My first impression is now changing. These machines seem capable. I saw them in deep snow I happen to know my Diablo would have a hard time breaking trail. Very impressed with the torque ...

Re: SnowDog - new motor tow.
Those are an interesting concept. I did look them up a few years ago. And again last year when I was contemplating putting on a 4 stroke Honda clone with a torque converter from Harbor freight/princess auto here in Canada, on my restore 500. I am not sold on the Idea of standing in a moving machine....

Re: Last chance riding
Roy! How many "last rides" can you have before your better half gets really :o :o :o ? For myself, I finally got to replacing my top engine mount today. (Look at these pictures close guys) I believe there was a crack in more than one place over the years. These pictures clearly show the only two poi...

Re: 502 engine mount lower
Yes I agree Bruce, they say a little story. OK, I finally got my 502 into a rolling frame. It was challenging doing all those boogie wheels tires, welds and lube.

502 engine mount lower
Hi guys. Well I started it. I am into this 502 complete restore up to my elbows right now. :o http://i63.tinypic.com/syts9c.jpg During the tear-down, I came across a couple of questionable areas. The first one being the engine mount. Somehow the engine looks like it was sitting forward. closer to th...
