|
|
I've been having trouble with the 6.5 hp engine I have on my winch now, I ordered a new muffler, but the order got canceled 'cause they didn't actually have it in stock. I'm gonna order another one, but I'm not sure I'll have it in time for the 4th when my friend's gonna be down. I have a 5.5 hp that I could probably swap in. Has anyone ever used a 5.5 on a winch/did it actually work? |

the 5.5 would probably work at full throttle if you dont have to deepwater start and are under 180 pounds. |

That describes my riding scenario, so I'll test it out if I can't get a new muffler, thanks. |

agreed, but it will help to remove the govenor, if you do it, please post video and pictures, 5.5 HP will help people save money and weight in their builds
