Shave your heads about .60 and that'll give you 5-8.

You can add a modified stock carb and an exhaust and that will get you what you need. The torque gain will be very nice for pulling heavy loads. Here is some links for you:

Exhaust: http://www.mudboatmotor.com/html/exhaust_system.html

Thanks

I'm looking at trying to get more horsepower out of my 31hp Hyper-drive, but I'm not sure Increasing the compression is such a good idea (for me). These motor's are hard to start when the temp gets into the teens. I'd hate to get stuck on the bay/marsh/lake 'cause my motor won't turn over fast enough to start.
