Best single cylinder
I have a Copperhead with a 10hp (291cc) motor on a 1236 flat bottom. I would like to go to a bigger single cylinder motor. I've read about how well the 12hp LCT performs. Is this my best bet, or should I look into Briggs, Kohler, Lifan, Honda, etc?

Re: Best single cylinder
I know of a man that popped 2 12lct motors. Copperhead replaced with a 14 kohler. Been running good for years now

Re: Best single cylinder
I have a Briggs Vanguard 10 hp and it seems to be a good motor. I know a few guys running 14 hp Kohlers also with no complaints.

Re: Best single cylinder
What prop is on the 10hp? I know the 12hp is a 10x8 and the 7hp is a 9x9, just wondering if the 10hp uses the 7hp or 12hp prop.

Re: Best single cylinder
I found a few old threads on the Vegas Carts 460cc motor:
Are these holding up on mud motors?
