While between car builds and waiting for more parts, I decided to have some fun and V8 swap my old riding lawn mower. This is a video on the build and some fun reviving it up at the end... my neighbors might hate me if they didn't already... but it's badass so it's worth it!

This is a very sturdy and well built mower. I thought I wouldn't like the foot operated speed control but after one use kzread.infoUgkxTZSPVwJFBv2hORqhQamtxi-tAe5K2EtC , I can't believe I ever had one without it. It drives like a car with an automatic transmission. Easy to adjust mowing speed according to grass depth/thickness. I have yet to get used to the long throw of the blade engagement lever but kind of get why it is that way. It allows you to hold mowing for short moments if you need. The engine seems very substantial and the frame has very little flex, both adding up to an impressive package. All my previous tractors were 18 to21 hp with 42in decks. This one is 23/46. I mow about 1.5 acres about every 5 days here in Alaska and that mowing time has been reduced by about 20%, partly due to the very tight turning radius. No loop arounds lol. Hour meter, cruise control, reverse mowing capability,deck cleanout and easy assembly all add up to a very well thought out tractor.

Let’s get that speed up!!! I wanna see this thing launch! I was scared for you at first when I saw the extensions put in, I thought first shit at the throttle it would bend the frame and break haha. But you solved that with the gearbox
You are heading in the right direction ! Take your time, and sort out the correct drive systems needed to drive a larger than original mower deck ! Maybe something like a 60 inch deck ! Stiffen up the chassis a bit ! Extend an original hood, and make it look as close to correct as possible ! And then you will definitely have something no one else has for sure !
i like how you mounted the battery in the same place you mounted a car battery on your sisters Power Wheels Jeep when you were 8 years old... oh and I vote "GRASS GASSER" because it resembles an old school gasser..
Gotta get u a gearbox that'll make that wild SOB the King Garden tractor of the block & do 80 mph!

The people need to see this, better yet take a lesson on your positive attitude. This is the best smile making video I have ever seen. Maybe ( life shaker ) keep up sharing the love it helps the public.
V8 exhaust note and the slight spent fuel smell is therapy for men all over the U.S. It calms the most troubled souls.

@@danielmarkle8823 just remember if you build it you will bleed. But youll have a hell of a lot of fun. Always keep lots of super glue duct tape hydrogen peroxide and paper towels on hand. You can stop most any wpund from bleeding and save most body parts long enough to finish the project or at least get to a stopping point. I got so good at sewing myself up i had others ringing me at all hours to to show n sew. Thats part of it. Not every 52 year old man has a three person gas powered snow ski slightly modified for extreme high speed drag racing. It was pointed out to me that most either didnt make it to 52 or that most never thought there was a need for one. Stick with it. If your friends dont back ya. Get ones that will.

Id put a gas peddle on the right side floor board and a 292 cam and a different transmission so you can go faster. Cool build. You did a great job at fabricating and stretching the frame and buildings the motor mounts and radiator support and the top radiator hose. Keep up the good work.
