I have been thinking of upgrading my LM 29. Was thinking of going to the hd36 but...
Anyone out there upgrade there engine from the 14hp Kohler. That by the way in my opinion is really good. And what did you go to and how big can I go. Thanks in advance.

Motor upgrade
What! No one. Someone must have hot rodded their L M 29
I haven't, but I've been thinking about how to install a couple Chevy L79 engines, but with only one inlet on the head, I'm not certain how to get full horsepower out of the 327 engines.
More seriously, I've not run into a limitation with my 14 HP Kohler, so I'm good with mine. If I did add a different engine, I would only do it if I could find some other reason aside from power. Fuel flexibility, maybe?
One thing I would think of is getting some flywheel or something, so the RPMs don't drop when running into a pine knot or something.
