Re: 24v Questions

Thanks for the link, hopefully they keep the price around there, lol.

Is it worth it to convert the 24v over a 12v? is the head flow better? Are there any other reasons to do this other than convenience? I am thinking that I can probably sell quite a few of the parts off the engines that I wont need to help pay for P pump conversion parts? I dont know the state of any of the engines in the yard, though I assume they ran when pulled because of where they are, in the part of the yard where you're not allowed to take tools, they sell those engines as running.
I am not looking to change the engine from "stock" other than I just don't want the controls there since I want to keep it simple. Even if I bought a 12v I would only do a little to get more power out of it, but I am willing to tear this down and check the insides, re-ring etc if necessary. I just want to make sure it is worth spending $450 to only have to spend another $3,000+
Thanks for the input so far
