Post Which Engine???
I just bought a go-devil frame and am trying to decide which engine I should put on it; right now its between a 23hp Kawasaki, 18hp Briggs & Stratton v-twin and 20hp Kohler Command. What do y'all think?

Not sure on shaft size of those engines or specs on a GD. But you cant beat a Honda Engine. Been running a Honda GX390(13HP) beavertail for 5 years no problems.

kohler or briggs, the kawa parts are too expensive. if you go briggs do a 23 hp. its the same block, so weight wont be any more plus the extra 5 hp.
