Setx is about the only sponsor I recall quite a few threads were removed for. What other stuff has been deleted?

You mentioned dsc, I guess you weren't around for gecker?

The mayhem was a brief but good one! Lol

DSC dude went to jail over his shit, so his thread gets to stay!!!

Gecker closed down shortly after he got the boot. Several folks followed him around the cart sites and other forums he frequented after leaving here too. there were several times an Mmt bus was talked about being leased for a cross country trip, picking up members along the way

Y'all wanna here both sides whats the othe side to installing the wrong fucking piston rod there is no excuse if you claim to be able to fix and mod these Briggs.

Robs always been straight with me.....not sure what all went on since I haven't spoken to rob about it. I hate hearing about this. I'm gonna with hold my opinion until I talk to rob and hoyt, if they are willing to discuss it.

I've talked to rob, went and got my boat from him yesterday. Dude straight showed me a rod from a 35 and a rod from a 31. Exact same thing. If there is a difference, the naked eye can't see it. If I had a problems like ole dude had I would have taken it back to the original mechanic and demanded it be fixed. But that's me. I know he did me right I had to threaten him to take my money for helping me out.

modded engines blow up sometimes......

So you're saying the connecting rod for a short stroke 31hp is the same connecting rod as a 35hp?

They are not the same rods, I don't care what you say. The 31 rods or longer than the 35 rods, hence the reason shooters compression was so low with 36 aftermarket rods on a 32 crank

Shooters 32 prodrive has longer EVT rods with flat tops and .040 decked heads and his compression was 175. Does that sound right to you? The reason his compression was so low was due to the fact on he had installed 36 hp EVT rods and pistons on a 32 hp crank.

Make it easy for em Jamie. The stroke on the 35 is 3.41". The stroke on the 31 is 3.07". Both bores are 3.37". Both compression ratios are 8.2:1. There's only a couple ways to achieve the same compression with the same bore and a shorter stroke crank...rod length, cylinder head combustion chamber size, or piston compression height/dish volume/piston top design. Which one of these routes you think would be the easiest for briggs?

Now you just confused some people.

Jamie B., sometimes it's much easier to remain silent.

I try to alot of times Craig, but sometimes I just can't.

so the part #'s are the same but they are different? how can that be?

Human error, The 31 and 35 pistons or the same pistons but have different part #s and the 31 Piston was 7 dollars cheaper than the 35 piston. Does that make since?

Gatortail and Prodrive understand this.

Seems to be some confusion in the great minds comparing RODS....lol

Or a 45 versus a 42? They look the same but...

Hopefully the cust won't notice

The thought is that it wasn't done intentionally, Mechanical error, it happens all the time, just make it right and move on, Its a learning!
