You do realize that a 35 hp Briggs is also 1000cc's right?

BUT a 35hp Briggs at 1000cc is not a 150+hp R1 motor spinning 10krpm's! I would say junk the tranny part, keep the clutch and make a SD out of it, that thing would be nuts

Not to be a dic, but if it would work good, it would have already been mass produced. BT had their "Predator" with a Harley engine before everyone else was running sd's. They're the original 30mph mud motor, but how long did that last?

Basin Lover built his "Mud Viper" with a Harley (I think it was) motor. Ask everyone how it turned out. Can't keep clutches on it.

Sometimes too much is too much.

What were saying is that the high rpm motors don't have torque all the way through the rpm range. That's why they have trannys. It would be awesome if it worked, no doubt. I hope it does!

I think if you size the prop right you'll be able to maintain the r's, maybe some reduction to take advantage of a large prop. It will take some playing around with things but I bet it'll make one hell of a machine
