Not sure on the hrs. Cylinders looked great when the heads were off to do the valves. I will get pics later today. Valves were carboned up not burnt. Thanks

The engine and kit are out and ready to go.

I am between Eau Claire and La Crosse. I put in a Kohler Command Pro 37 HP.

any pictures/details on the kohler install?

I once worked my stock 620 hard enough to have the transmission oil temp light come on. How is it going to handle 17 more horsepower. What is driving the quest for more power? With a handle like Fasstman, is
it the more speed, more power philosophy?
The air cleaner looks like a tight fit. Is that why you need a new hood, will it have to be reworked? We had some pictures posted here showing extended 720 (3cyl diesels). They must of had to make new hoods. Perhaps contact that poster for hood info, maybe they have a sheet metal wizard contact.
How is the vibration and smoothness and sound of these v-twins compared to the opposed Onan? Looks like you can get to the started with out pulling the engine, yeah.

I just like power and because I can do it. The engine is smoother and more quiet than the onan. I am relocating the air cleaner for space.

Mine has a vertical muffler, not under the hood. I think that helps the
heat issue. The exhaust pipes are not wrapped with insulation.
But now I have to watch for tree branches.

Goes fine. You can just idle up hill with hydro in full forward in third gear and engine hardly even knows it. Just about have the mower deck mods done. Have the air cleaner relocated. Still looking for a hood.

3 1/16" stretch and I will have to lengthen and widen the hood. I am tring to get stuff low enough so I don't raise the hood.

Can someone explain how you go about extending and widening the hood?

I am not there yet. Still looking for a extra hood. I might have found one. I am still tring to shave the height down so I don't have to raise the hood. The hydraulic lines should be done today. Then it will be the hood. I mowed with it a couple days ago.
