HIT AND MISS

Recommended Posts

A friend of mine put a hit and miss on a WHeel horse, but it was a gear drive. To me a gear drive would be more suited to the lower Rpms of a hit n Miss than a Hydro wouldnt it?

A mistake in naming. That International LA engine is throttle governed, and is not a hit and miss engine, though it is a nice idea for a playtoy. I have thought about putting a 15 hp Fairbanks engine on a lawnmower, and any of you that are familiar with the engine will know how impossible that would be! The flywheel diameter is 44 1/2". has an 8" bore and 10" stroke, with a top speed of 350 RPM. It too is throttle governed, but would prove interesting. Of course, I will likely need a lift kit for the tractor?

      Site programming updates were made 3/23/2024. As a result some things have changed including dues payment options. We will continue maintenance and work with technicians to regain credit card payment option and clear up minor challenges. On positive it appears attaching pictures is now easier. Good day. Gene
