Is this a good engine choice?

yeah... I don't know what stock is, but I know it is not more than 3... so this is twice the power at least... good deal for a good price, I bet after this thread, Gizmo is about to be out of stock...
That's the truth.

Well I talked to the company about 5 min ago, the engine is more around 6.5 hp and 3lbs of torque. I still ordered it along with the rear dom. Hoping this setup w the 990 carb, belt drive, and 8000 clutch should run pretty good.
Wonder if they have the data to back it up? Would be nice to see.

If I claimed to have an engine that makes an estimated 10HP, I'd want the data to support that claim. Some builders tend to get a little generous with their estimates.

Im guessing the the 30.5 is a tad less. They tend to be lower reving.
