Looks good Paul how many litres does that beast burn p/h?

Thinking of having my 18hp Briggs converted but some say the conversion causes the engine to run hot, anyone had a smaller engine converted?

 At nearly £7 per gallon starting to look worth the risk.

well i was told mine was a 21hp, 421, 4  blower with 21 hp, hence 421 but according to that chart it only does (like you pointed out) 20 or 22, so either ive been sold short (boohoo) or i got a 22hp motor, (woohoo)
