Are these federal laws or state laws that you are referencing? It isn't part of South Dakota's codified laws:

I picked up a set of 53" XZLs this weekend for a good price. Yes, a bit of a lift is needed but it is still very driveable. The front tire rubs on the rear fender brace at full turn. I do not have the stack exhaust. My front springs have a negative arch; what is normal? I have very little...
While it may not be a problem with the dry sleeve multifuel, running a zero-pressure cooling system will increase the likelihood of cavitation erosion in wet sleeve engines.
This agrees with what I have read in that the high compression ratio hurts efficiency due to higher frictional losses. The engine design books that I have read state that the minimum compression ratio that permits easy starting should be used.
I read some of the farm tractor forums to see...
I changed the grill to a multi variant. It seems like the hinges are slightly further aft on the gas truck. I'd hate to start modifying things if there is something obvious that I am missing.
I plan to keep the radiator to use with the farm tractor repower. It is a strange version with the...
Several things led to this but basically I wanted to try something different and I got a line on everything to do the swap (engine/ tranny/ radiator, and all the bits and pieces) for a price that I could justify.
The 400 Reo worked flawlessly and will give new life to a Farmall F20.
I traded labor and a snow plow for a good deal on an LDT-465-1C engine and radiator and swapped it for my 400 Reo this weekend. The multi is a MUCH tighter fit than the gas engine. Operating in the same RPM range, pretty close to the 400 gas. Hoping to increase it a bit with more fuel and...
The ONLY part that you got right is that most dynos measure torque. Those that have a load cell mathematically calculate horsepower from torque and rpm. However, you CAN measure HP directly. One way is to couple an engine to a generator, connect it to a load, measure the power dissipated...
