All the carbs do that even in stock form. Lakota reworks them to flow more. But again without the correct cam and RPM it may very well be a waste of money.

What I'm getting at is..... If you are bolting it on a 4,000 rpm engine that has a stock cam and you are expecting a 2hp gain you may very well be disappointed.

Lakota agreed with you. The new pulling season starts in two weeks. The wait is killing me. Planning to convert back to a puller this weekend.

I hope to have my carb from them in a few weeks. Then I'm going to test it on the dyno.

Just got back from the local pull. Took first place in both classes I pulled in. No trophy this round, but I did win a few bucks. It was a good day.

Your gear advice helped the most. The competition either pulled in first gear and spun out early or tried to pull in second and bogged the engine down. The 20% underdrive I used worked just right pulling in second gear.

all the power in the world don't do you any good without the correct gear.

Here are a couple of pics. All dressed up and ready to pull. Those are one of the last pair of new super lugs on the planet.

The rain finally let up and we pulled this weekend. Two more wins. I managed to increase my distance by 30 feet this time. The At101 tires worked really well. That and the tractor is well balanced now. Learning to ride the wheelie and steer with my weight. People are starting to fish to find out what I am doing right. Several came by to complement my tractor for running so well.

The last run was a lot of fun. Towards the end, the front end was up in the air and ground speed had slowed to almost nothing. I was ready to shut it down but I was still moving forward, barely. Rode it out and got at least two more feet out of the ride. It was a good day.
