We get calls all the time asking, "How do I get more power?"
Short answer? It depends. How wild do you want to get?
Want a crisper start and smoother performance?
Go with Plow Day Mods
What you'll feel:
- Faster, cleaner starts
- Ability to lug harder without stalling
- Your tractor running smoother
What we do: Light carburetor modifications and a distributor recurve
Need more pulling power across the full RPM range or specific performance use case?
Choose a Light Puller Build
What you'll feel:
- Stronger pulls
- More power. Everywhere...low, mid, and high RPM
- Clean, crisp starts. Every time.
What we add: Carb mods, camshaft regrind, and more balanced/aggressive timing tuned for your usage. IE: Stone Boat, Transfer Sled, Field.
What a BIG jump in power output?
Go for Compression Mods. (This is where you start to make REAL power)
What you'll feel:
- Noticeably more power
- Even more grunt under load
- A smile from ear to ear
What we change: All mods above joined with lengthened rods for increased compression. Boring of carb may be recommended.
(This is also the best time to port the head and modify the stock manifolds.)
Looking to build something -next level-?
You want a Stroker Build.
What you'll get:
- Maximum torque
- Bigger power gains
- A whole new attitude from your engine
- Sad faces from your competition when you outpull them...
What we do: We stroke the crankshaft and build a completely custom setup for your needs.
