   Throttle
Stabilizer/Anti-Surge Springs. Lightweight spring connects between throttle
and governor levers to remove free play (looseness) in linkage connections
and reduce erratic engine behavior due to throttle flutter for a smoother
running engine and reduce wear to throttle shaft. Can be used on virtually
any Briggs & Stratton, Kohler K-series, Magnum or Command single- or
twin-cylinder cast iron or aluminum block engine. A must for a generator,
welder or 4,000 RPM± governed competition pulling engine. With a governed
pulling engine, throttle flutter causes the engine RPM to momentarily spike,
which will cause the rear
tires to lose traction (temporary jerk), resulting in a possible failed
pull. If a small hole isn't already present in each lever close to linkage
connection, may need to drill a small hole to install spring.

 Professional Remote
Spring-Return Cable-Operated Foot Pedal Throttle Control Kit for Governed
Stock Competition Pulling Tractors, Go-Karts, Recreational Vehicles, Snowmobiles,
King Midget micro cars (Kohler engines in King Midget cars
originally come from the factory with no governor components; governor components
must be installed in engine for this kit to work), etc. with a 10-16hp Kohler
engine. If governored RPMs is set correctly (4,000 maximum), this setup will
prevent over-revving of the engine, which could cause connecting rod breakage,
and possibly damage or destroy the engine block. NOTE: Hole in OEM throttle
swivel w/locking screw may need to be enlarged to 5/64" to accommodate inner
stranded cable. An ingenious concept by Brian Miller.

Thrust
Washers for Governor Gear Assemblies. A thrust washer is required to
prevent the governor gear from wearing against the engine block when the
governor gear is under full pressure from the engine running at higher RPMs.
Many people are not aware of this small, thin washer because it may appear
to be part of the engine block, and it usually falls out and gets lost while
cleaning inside the block. IMPORTANT: Due to high RPM and pressure of
the governor gear upon engine start-up, before installing, lubricate the
stub shaft and thrust washer with motor oil, automotive chassis lube or wheel
bearing grease to prevent the governor gear from wearing until the crankcase
oil reaches these areas.

  Governor Cross Shaft Bushings with a rubber lip oil seal or
snug-fitting neoprene rubber O-ring installed in machined counterbore to
prevent dust and dirt/debris from wearing the bushing and/or shaft and prevent
messy film of oil on outside of engine. Seal fits snug in bushing and on
shaft, and has no effect with operation of governor whatsoever. WHY THIS
IS IMPORTANT: Vacuum within the engine crankcase created by the upward stroke
of the piston draws in air, along with dust, dirt/debris through the
bushing/shaft, and then pressure created by the downward stroke of the piston
blows out a fine mist of oil through the bushing/shaft. Overtime, the dust,
dirt/debris cause the bushing (and sometimes the shaft, too) to wear, which
also leaves an oily mess on the outside of the engine. IMPORTANT: When removing
the old bushing, use caution not to drop the governor cross shaft down inside
the crankcase! And before installing the new bushing, apply clean motor oil,
gear oil or lubricating grease on the shaft for less wear to the shaft, seal
and/or bushing, and for smoother throttle action. An ingenious and innovative
concept by Brian Miller, because nobody else advertise this improved product
or offer this type of service.

rings will also fit the Mahle pistons, the Mahle pistons are not available
for these engines. Priced per cylinder. To maintain engine balance and

| NOTE: High-quality ring sets, pistons and piston/rings assemblies
are also available for other makes and models of small gas engines. And the
piston assemblies that's offered here will work with a stock connecting rod
and crankshaft without the need for rebalancing. And always match a billet
connecting rod of a certain length to an aftermarket piston (Arias, JE, etc.)
that has the correct compression height. These two parts must be matched
for the piston to come flush with the top of the engine block, or have a
few thousands of an inch pop-out. If using a Kohler connecting rod, the
compression height may not be correct with an aftermarket piston (Arias,
JE, etc.) that has the wrong wrist pin offset. The same is true with a Kohler
piston and a billet connecting rod of a the wrong length. You can find piston
ring compressors on
eBay. |
| NOTE: Complete engine rebuild kits are available, but a kit will cost
more than if the parts were purchased separately. So please contact A-1 Miller's
with a list of parts you need, and I'll get back to you with a total amount
including shipping & handling. And if you need a part or parts that's
not listed in this website or for other make and model of engines. Please
contact A-1 Miller's and I'll see if I can get it at a reasonable price.
Please contact A-1 Miller's if you're interested in any
of the above È parts or items. |
Upon installation of a connecting rod in a Kohler
engine, the oil hole in the cap face toward the camshaft! There's "match
marks" on both the rod and rod cap. They MUST be aligned or "matched up"
so the big end of the rod forms a perfect circle around the crank journal
when installed. Otherwise, if the cap is installed backwards, the "perfect
circle" will be oblong or "egg-shaped," which will bind on the crank journal.
And DO NOT over-tighten the rod bolts or nuts! If the threads strip out in
a rod, then perhaps a longer grade 8 fine thread bolt can be installed in
reverse to serve as a stud (the rod will need to be machined for head bolt
clearance) and use a grade 8 nut. If this cannot be done, then the rod is
scrap metal. |
 Connecting rods. Fits
Kohler engine models K90/K91. NOTE: Crank journal must be reground
.010" undersize to match this rod. The alternative to using an undersize
rod is if a STD size or .010" undersize rod is in good condition, if the
matching-size crank journal isn't deeply scored and/or badly burnt, it can
be reground until it's perfectly round again and then if the original rod
also isn't deeply scored and/or badly burnt, it can be resized to fit to
odd-size undersize journal with the factory recommended .0025" oil clearance.
NOTE - The maximum a connecting rod can be resized to is .005" undersize.
If it's resized more than .005", being the big hole in the rod will be made
excessively oblong or egg-shaped, which will allow it to make less bearing
surface contact around the crank journal after being resized, due to the
centrifugal force at 3,600 RPM, the big end of the rod could become elongated
(metal stretch) and might eventually knock and possibly break. IMPORTANT:
To prevent scoring of the rod when the engine is started for the first time,
apply clean motor oil, gear oil or lubricating grease or on crank journal
before installing rod. This will better protect the parts until crankcase
oil reaches them. IMPORTANT: Click

 New OEM connecting rods. Fits Kohler engine models K482, K532,

K532 and K582 crankshaft rod journals reground to .010", .020" or .030"
undersize, a connecting rod that has a burnt or scored bearing surface can
be bored out to make room for matching .010", .020" or .030" undersize bearing
inserts. The alternative to using bearing inserts in a connecting rod - if
the bearing surface of a STD size or .010" undersize rod is in good condition
and not badly scored or burnt, the rod journal(s) can be reground and "cleaned
up" until perfectly round again, then the connecting rod can be resized (in
a connecting rod honing machine) to fit or match the odd-size undersize journal
with the factory recommended .0025" oil clearance. However, the maximum a
connecting rod can be resized to is .005" undersize. If it's resized more
than .005", being the big hole in the rod will be made excessively oblong
or egg-shaped, which will allow it to make less bearing surface contact around
the crank journal after being resized, due to the centrifugal force at 3,600
RPM, the big end of the rod could become elongated (metal stretch) and could
eventually knock and possibly break.

 STD size, .010", .020"
or .030" (hard to find now) undersize Replaceable Tri-Metal (Lead
Alloy/Copper/Steel) Bearing
Inserts in Connecting Rods for Kohler engine models K241/M10, K301/M12,
K321/M14, K341/M16, K361 M20 and MV20. Rods for the before mentioned
engines can be bored and notched to accept bearing
inserts. Even severely burnt, scored, or rods with a mismatched cap can
be bored for installation of bearing inserts. Only USA-made Clevite 77, Federal
Mogul or Sealed Power bearing
inserts will be installed. No low quality Chinese-made bearing inserts
ever installed. All A-1 Miller machined connecting rods include ground-out
notches to prevent bearing rotation in rod and drilled oil hole for proper
lubrication. Please indicate diameter of crank journal for size of
bearing inserts. (STD size, .010", .020", .030" or
resizable .060" undersizes.) Also, rods can be center-bored for top of piston
to come flush with deck, or bored .020"± offset for a .020"± piston
pop-out at no extra charge.

Price of rod $? + $20.00 for bearing inserts + $25.00 labor to bore rod =
$? total, plus return shipping & handling.
NOTE: If a crank journal is worn beyond specs or badly scored/burnt,it
will need to be reground to the next undersize to match the appropriate size
bearing inserts. And if you want A-1 Miller's to bore a rod for you, please
let me know if you want the bearing insert centered in the bore of the rod
(5.300" rod length; piston flush with top of block), offset .020" (5.320"
rod length; safe to use with a milled OEM Kohler stock head and stock head
gasket) or offset .060" (5.360" rod length; use with a non-milled OEM Kohler
head and stock head gasket) to pop the piston out of the cylinder (see below
Ê) to raise the compression and help
improve airflow within the combustion chamber for more power and torque.
The bearing inserts I install in Kohler 10-16hp flatheads
and 18hp OHV K361 connecting rods can be used for general lawn and garden
use, stock or high RPM competition pulling engines. The rod will need to
be bored exactly 1.625" for correct bearing to journal oil
clearance.
NOTE: Being virtually all Kohler K241/M10 pistons come within
.020"± from the top of the block, which lowers the compression ratio.
(The factory made them this way for reasons unknown.) I prefer to bore the
K241 10hp rods .020" offset so the piston will come flush with the top of
the block. This will allow the engine to produce a little more power. It
won't effect the longevity of the engine or cause any problems whatsoever.
But sometimes with the .020" offset, the piston will pop out of the cylinder
a few thousandths of an inch, which will still hurt nothing. And the bore
can be offset .040" for a .020"± piston pop-out.
FYI - Before I machine a rod for installation of bearing inserts,
I use a metal "plug" alignment tool that I fabricated to precisely align
the big hole of the connecting rod with the centerline of the spindle in
my milling machine. Then while the plug is in the rod, I firmly clamp the
rod to the milling machine table and after leaving the big hole centered
or moving the table so many thousandths of an inch offset for piston pop-out,
I lock the table so it won't move in any direction while boring the rod.
But for reasons unknown, sometimes the cutting tool will bore the hole in
the rod slightly off-center toward one of the bolts or studs. When this happens,
I simply grind a small notch on the outside of each bearing shell so they'll
clear the rod bolt. I've talked to other machinists who bore Kohler rods
also about this and they tell A-1 Miller's sometimes the same thing happens
to their rods. But as long as the outside of the bearing shells are notched
for clearance of the bolt or stud, the off-center of the bearing inserts
poses no problems whatsoever.
And bearing inserts for the 10-16hp Kohler engines can be installed
in Kohler engine models K482, K532 and K582 STD size connecting rods, but
the crank journals would need to be reground exactly to 1.500" to match the
inside diameter of the bearing inserts when installed in the rods. And for
your information, STD size crank journals for the K482, K532 and K582 engines
measures 1.6245".
Narrow wrist pin width on 12hp or 14hp (old style) connecting rod for use
with K-series 16hp cast piston or "new style" (Magnum) Mahle forged pistons.

 Main
Crankshaft Radial Ball Bearings. Fits Kohler K-series and Magnum cast iron
block engine models K141, K160/K161 and K181. Heat treated. These are
specifically designed to provide maximum performance through precise ball
implement selection. Aftermarket bearing packed with fresh grease from the
factory. Dimensions: 1.18" I.D. (30mm) x 2.44" (62mm) O.D. x .62" (16mm)
width. See note below. NOTE: If yours have more than .005" of play due
to wear, or it feels rough or "rubbles" when rotated by hand with motor oil
applied, then it needs to be replaced. FYI - All ball bearings have
always been made to the metric dimensions. Where applicable, the US and import
manufacturers try to make them close to the inch dimensions as possible.

Bearings. Fits Kohler K-series and Magnum cast iron block engine models K241/M10,
K301/M12, K321/M14, K341/M16 and K361. Heat treated material. These are
specifically designed to provide maximum performance through precise ball
implement selection. Works excellent for general lawn and garden engines
or high performance engines that run at high RPM or at
wide
open throttle. Bigger balls rotate freer and run cooler, which create
less rolling resistance and friction than a bearing with smaller balls.

New. OEM Kohler part # 235376-S. $116.55 each, plus shipping &

NOTE: With the main bearings removed from an engine, and if all
the oil is cleaned from the bearings, allowed to thoroughly dry, and when
the bearings are spun by hand, and if the bearings isn't worn much or at
all, they might feel "rough" and make a rattling sound. This rattling sound
isn't necessarily because the bearing is worn. The noise is caused by the
balls running dry on the races because there's no oil to separate them. They're
simply making metal to metal contact. Try applying a small amount of motor
oil to the balls/races then spin them. They should now be a lot quieter.
The same thing will happen with new radial ball bearings. By the way - Most
main bearings in a Kohler engine will wear extremely little, if any at all,
and usually don't require replacing. Although some main bearings will wear
(which is obvious), and need to be replaced. And excessively worn main bearings
will make a rumbling noise and the engine will have a more
than-usual-vibration. |

hard to start, lose power and possibly make a popping sound through the
carburetor or out the exhaust. And be sure to set the clearances correctly,
too. And if the end of the valve stem is accidentally ground too short, it
can be made long again by building up welding with a MIG or TIG welder, then
ground to the correct valve clearance.

can be made long again by building up welding with a MIG or TIG welder, then
ground to the correct valve clearance.
 High Quality Valve Lapping Tools
with Wooden Contoured Grip. After the valve faces and seats have been
professionally recut or reground in a valve refacer machine and valve seats
recut or reground with a valve seat grinder/grinding stone, and valve clearances
have been set to specifications, apply
valve grinding/lapping compound (which can be purchased
online and at virtually any auto parts store) on the valve faces and according
to valve size, use these tools to rotate the valve in its seat back and forth
by hand (lap-in the valves) to create a rough surface on the valve face and
seat so the valves will eventually wear into seats, forming a perfect seal
allowing the valves to last longer and so the engine will have more compression
to produce more power. IMPORTANT - Always thoroughly clean the valve
grinding/lapping compound from the valves and seats, and inspect the valve
face and seat for 360º contact before installation of the valves!

 New-Style One-Piece Camshafts.
Fits Kohler engine models K141, K160/K161, K181 and Magnum M8. With ground
points lobe and ACR. IMPORTANT: To prevent seizing of the camshaft when
the engine is ran for the first time, apply clean motor oil, gear oil or
lubricating grease on cam pin before installing cam. This will better protect
the parts until crankcase oil reaches them. When reusing lifters, roughen
lifter faces with 600 grit sandpaper to produce a new wear pattern and so
the lifters will rotate slightly with every lift to prevent wear to the cam
lobes. And the K141, K160 and K161 cams can't be used in the K181 engine
due to its longer stroke. ACR = automatic compression release. FYI: Being
the automatic compression release (ACR) [hair-like] spring (part number 47
089 01-S) is no longer available from Kohler or in aftermarket, if yours
places little or weak pressure against the flyweights, it can be re-bent

 For Kohler engine models K241/M10,
K301/M12, K321/M14, K341/M16 and K361. This particular cam profile design
provides more torque (lugging power) and improved engine performance from
3,800 to 4,200 RPM. Suitable for stock competition pulling. The lobes on
this cam are not welded up. They are professionally reground to have the
factory stock lift (.324"), but have slightly increased duration, which makes
it perform best at the 4,000 RPM range. This cam will pass tech for a stock
cam. It will add about 3 more horsepower and 2 ft. lbs. of torque to an average
stock engine with more lugging power than the OEM Kohler K361 cam. This cam
builds up the compression about 6% more than the K361 cam, and approximately
11% more than the flathead engine cams at around 4,000 RPM. This cam sounds
just like an OEM Kohler stock cam. You can't hear the difference out the
exhaust. It's perfect for a competing stock pulling tractor or for heavy
lawn and garden work.
  When used for
competition pulling, this cam performs best with a set of our
BLUE medium performance valve springs
and retainers (below Ê), reworked and
undercut stock size valves, intake and exhaust port runners made bigger,
and a bored-out and reworked carburetor. A bored-out venturi and reworked
carburetor is when it is modified for maximum performance for general yard
and garden use, and/or for competition pulling. All these performance
enhancements needs to be made to increase the airflow in and out of the
combustion chamber so the engine can produce more power and torque. If there's
any restriction in and out of the combustion chamber, this cam will not be
able to perform at 100% efficiency, and the engine will not be able to produce
as much power and torque as it is capable of. The duration and centerline
of the lobes on this cam helps the engine produce the most power and torque
between 3,600-4,500 RPM. At higher RPM, due to the limited duration, no
substantial gain in power or torque will result. If the engine is built to
the max, tractor is geared correctly and traction is adequate, engine shouldn't
bog down much with this cam. It'll keep pumping out the ponies right out
the gate! Use with the OEM Kohler 1" base lifters. When reusing lifters,
roughen lifter faces with 600 grit sandpaper in an erratic pattern to produce
a new wear pattern and so the lifters will rotate slightly with every lift
to prevent wear to the cam lobes. Use the
recommended break-in oil,
too. This cam installs just like the OEM Kohler cam. Just thoroughly lubricate
the inside with motor oil, align the timing marks on the gear teeth, set
the end-play and valve clearances at .010" for the intake and .014" for the
exhaust, and it should be good to go!

When sending a cam to A-1 Miller's, please include a note with your name,
complete mailing address, phone number and a description of what you want
done and a list of any other parts you may need, and we will contact you
when the cam (and parts) are ready to be sent back to you. Please send to:
A-1 Miller's Performance Enterprises, 1501 W. Old Plank Rd., Columbia, MO
(Missouri) 65203-9136 USA.
FYI: When the cam lobes are reground, metal is removed from the base
circle which reduce the diameter of the base circle in order retain maximum
lift at the point on the lobe. The ramps on the lobes are also "rounded"
to give the cam more duration. The cam grinding machine's grinding stones
are about 1" wide, and after the cam grinding process, I have to manually
grind metal away from the sides of the base circles so the edge of the lifters
won't "ride up" on the ungrounded areas and hold the valves slightly open
when they're supposed to be fully closed. I have to do this to every reground
cam I have in stock. Some cam grinders apply a
phosphate conversion coating (which resembles flat or matte
black paint) to the entire camshaft, especially the lobes. This coating is
to prevent galling (wear) during the break-in period and it also covers the
secondary grinding areas on each side of the base circles of the lobes so
they can't be readily easily seen or noticed. Motor oil with high zinc phosphate
content will also protect the cam lobes and other internal moving engine
parts from wear during break-in. Otherwise, if everything else is set up
correctly with your engine, this cam should work fine. There's no need to
be concerned when you receive the cam and see the metal ground away. Also,
some of the cams I have, the points lobe is slightly worn. (It's hard to
find a good used, 100% unworn cam nowadays.) I include a stainless steel
points pushrod with a flared-end to make contact with the unworn areas of
the lobe. The pushrod will need to be installed from inside the block before
the cam is installed. IMPORTANT: To prevent seizing of camshaft on pin when
engine is ran for the first time, apply plenty of motor oil on cam pin and
inside cam before installing cam in engine. This will better protect the
parts until crankcase oil reaches them.
Medium Performance (Blue) Single
Valve Spring Set for Kohler engine models K241/M10, K301/M12, K321/M14, K341/M16
and K361. Can also be used in Kohler opposed (flathead) twin cylinder engine
models KT17 Series II, KT19 Series II, M18, M20, K482, K532 and K582 for
increased performance or competition pulling and with the stamped steel valve
retainers below. These springs are more aggressive than OEM Kohler valve
springs, but less aggressive than the red valve springs below. Suitable for
competition pulling engines only; not recommended for general yard or garden
use. Can be easily compressed with a small engine
valve spring compressor tool. Designed
for the OEM Kohler stock cam or our reground 4,000± RPM torque cam with
stock lift in pulling engines running up to 5,000 RPM for quicker valve closing
to prevent valve float.
(Newton's third law of motion.) Valve float allows the engine
to momentarily lose compression, cause fuel to spray out the carburetor and
the engine will make a "hunt, hunt" sound at high RPM. As a result, the engine
will lose power, and as the weight box on the sled moves forward upon on
the tractor, the engine may not be able to recover. These springs can be
used with stock size valves, OEM Kohler stamped steel/non-rotator retainers
and keepers/locks/collets. Do not use with OEM
Kohler valve rotators with these springs! Rotators are thicker, and being
these performance springs are much longer (and slightly stiffer) than stock
springs (that require rotators), coil bind may result at full valve lift,
which could break the cam. Sold as a matched set. One spring is no stiffer
than the other. Can be easily compressed with a standard small engine valve
spring compressor. Same diameter as OEM Kohler springs. Dimensions: .697"
I.D.; .953" O.D.; 2" uncompressed height. specifications: Seat load: 27 lbs.

High Performance Camshaft for Hot-Stock and Stock-Altered Kohler Competition
Pulling Engines -
 Fits Kohler engine models K241/M10,
K301/M12, K321/M14, K341/M16 and K361 Competition Pulling Engines. This is
a much more aggressive camshaft than above
È. Lobes are hard-surface welded on
an OEM Kohler cast cam, then professionally precision ground to give it a
stock lift (.324"-.330"), but much more duration (290º).
 This cast cam
performs best with high performance (red) valve
springs (below Ê), reworked and undercut
stock size or oversize valves for more airflow, ports made larger and the
venturi in the carburetor bored out. If there's any restriction in and out
of the combustion chamber, the cam will not be able to perform at 100% efficiency
for better engine performance. Due to the increased duration, with an open
header pipe, this cam produces a loud and attention-getting BOOM, BOOM sound
at idle, and the sound "smoothes out" at higher and steady RPM, and then
produces a bellowing, rumbling,
crackling sound and backfire upon deceleration. This cam might cause slight
carburetor flooding or "loading up on fuel" at slow idle;
click
here to learn about this. This cam profile helps the engine produce the
most power and torque at wide open throttle operation. If used in a 4,000±
RPM engine, no substantial increase in power will result. To be used with
wide base lifters. When reusing lifters, roughen
lifter faces with 600 grit sandpaper in an erratic pattern to produce a new
wear pattern and so the lifters will rotate slightly with every lift to prevent
wear to the cam lobes. Use the
recommended break-in oil,
too. This cam installs just like the OEM Kohler cam. Just thoroughly lubricate
the inside with motor oil, align the timing marks on the gear teeth, set
the end-play and valve clearances at .010" for the intake and .014" for the
exhaust, and it should be good to go! NOTE: If methanol fuel is going to
be burned in the engine and the ignition timing advanced more than 25º
BTDC, the automatic compression release mechanism on this cam will need to
be removed and a high torque starter motor will also need to be used. Otherwise,
the timing would be so far advanced, the spark will occur when the compression
release opens the exhaust valve. This will cause the engine to be hard to
start, if it would start at all. IMPORTANT: To prevent seizing
of camshaft on pin when engine is ran for the first time, apply plenty of
motor oil on cam pin and inside cam before installing cam in engine. This
will better protect the parts until crankcase oil reaches them.

 Metal Hole Plug.
Use to block-off/plug the breather vent hose/tube hole in the base of the
air cleaner on Kohler AQS (Quiet Line) and Magnum engine models K241/M10,
K301/M12, K321/M14, K341/M16 and K361 when converting crankcase breather
to open atmospheric vent. Plug prevents dust and dirt from entering the engine
through the air cleaner, resulting in excessive engine wear, which will lead
to smoking out the exhaust and oil burning. When the plug is installed in
the hole, it will have a loose fit. Therefore, the locking tangs will need
to be bent/flared outward to secure it permanently in place.

 Resurface air-cooled small engine
cylinder head on large disc sander or wide, flat belt sander to remove warpage
and restore flatness, and deburr sharp edge around combustion chamber.
$10.00 labor, plus return shipping & handling.
Mill cylinder head approximately .050". Remove prominent/raised gasket mating
surface from head to increase compression ratio for the 10-16hp flathead,
K-series or Magnum single cylinder engines only. $25.00 labor each,
plus return shipping & handling. NOTE: To lessen the chance
of a blown or leaking head gasket, clean out the head bolt hole threads with
a tap, and seal the head gasket with
Copper RTV Silicone Sealant (VersaChem - Mega Copper Silicone,
Permatex® Ultra Copper® Maximum Temperature RTV Silicone Gasket Maker
or Copper SPRAY-A-GASKET Hi Temp Adhesive Sealant) on each side of the head
gasket or cylinder head and engine block to prevent a blown or leaking head
gasket. Because engine heat has very little effect on silicone rubber. It's
made of fine-ground up heat-transferring compressible copper mixed with silicone.
Walmart and most auto parts stores sell copper RTV silicone sealant. It doesn't
matter which brand to use, they work the same.
Professionally weld up burned-out area in small engine cylinder head, resurface
on a wide sanding belt to remove warpage and restore flatness, and redrill
bolt hole, if needed. NOTE - As long as there's no cracks in the head,
it can be successfully welded up, resurfaced, and the bolt hole redrilled.
IMPORTANT - Causes of a burn-out are: Throttle shaft in the carburetor is
severely worn, allowing extra air in the combustion chamber, which will lean
out the air/fuel mixture at high RPMs; the adjustable high speed air/fuel
mixture screw is set too lean; or the engine is ran above 3,200 RPM with
a [Walbro] carburetor having a fixed/non-adjustable high speed main jet.
To prevent the burn-out from happening again, either of these things should
be fixed correctly before the cylinder head is put back into service.
$75.00 for welding and labor, plus return shipping & handling.

Aftermarket Single Cylinder Head Stud Kits. Fits Kohler engine models K241/M10,
K301/M12, K321/M14, K341/M16 and K361 with an OEM or Billet Head. Each kit
includes 3/8" diameter x 2" or 2-3/4" length high quality heat-treated studs,
grade 8 nuts and hardened flat washers. I can also make the head studs any
length you want. The ones that's listed here are the most common lengths.
When installed correctly and
torqued to specs, head
studs provide even torque pressure for better head gasket sealing. Plus,
with a thinner cylinder wall with a huge, oversized piston, they help maintain
cylinder wall stability and straightness for better ring seal to lessen the
loss of compression. Thoroughly tested for several years of continuous use
under pulling conditions, for Kohler engine models, hardened and heat-treated
coarse thread studs, along with grade 8 nuts and washers, works just fine,
with no problems. The nuts maintain their torque as long as they're tightened
to the correct torque specs. And make sure at least 3/4" of threads are in
the block so the cylinder wall will not distort and threads in block will
not strip out when the nuts are torqued to specs.
Click or tap here for cylinder head bolt torque
specs. (Cast iron is weaker than hardened steel.) Also, the flat washers
goes under the nuts to distribute even pressure across head. IMPORTANT:
As with any threaded stud, apply
medium strength liquid threadlocker (Blue Loctite, Permatex
or equivalent) on threads that goes in the block to prevent stud from loosening.
FYI - When storing an opened container of liquid threadlocker or Super Glue,
store it upright and not laying flat. The [capped] tip will not dry out and
clog when stored upright. Thread stud 3/4" into the block. Use a hardened
flat washer under nut to distribute load across head and apply motor oil
on exposed threads so nut will torque correctly. Torque each nut to 360 in.
lbs. or 30 ft. lbs. in correct sequence. Also, stud length is determined
by type of cylinder head. The OEM head with short bolt holes require 2" length
studs, the head with tall bolt holes require 2-3/4" length studs. Please
indicate length of studs when placing order. An ingenious and innovative
concept by Brian Miller. Please accept no advertised copycat products of
this kind. (But I do appreciate them acknowledging my intelligence.)

 High Velocity
12 Volt Engine Cooling Fan. Use an electric cooling fan when engine has a
steel flywheel with no cooing fins. Draws 2.6 amps, produces 145 CFM. Measures
3" diameter and 5" length. Best to fasten fan on a sturdy angle steel support
bracket in front of engine or behind grille in a Cub Cadet garden tractor.

Miller's Computerized Stuska Water Brake
Engine
Dynamometer
(Dyno) Service with DPM Data Logger Software to Test Horsepower and
Torque!
 For performance testing of 10-16hp
single cylinder Kohler stock or competition pulling engines at speeds up
to 12,000 RPM. The only dyno service for testing Kohler pulling engines in
central Missouri. Fully operational and 100% accurate, customers can rent
dyno time, fine tune and make adjustments or changes to their engines to
gain maximum horsepower and torque, and print-out the results so their tractor(s)
will be truly competitive on the track. With an engine dyno, the puller can
adjust their engine to get maximum horsepower and torque, and gear their
tractor appropriately to have an advantage over the competition. NOTE:
A fresh-built engine may not produce full power until it's broke-in. This
is when the valves wear-in with the seats to completely seal in the compression.
The rings will likely hold the compression, but the valves may leak slightly
until they wear into the seats. This is normal for all engines and may take
several hours or pulls to happen, then the valves will be able to hold full
compression. Lots of pullers tell A-1 Miller's after I've built their engines
that it seems to pull stronger every time they pull it.
Engine Dyno Rental Fee: $50.00 per hour run time from the moment the
engine is started. No setup fee for Cub Cadet engines with a 3- or 6-pin/stud
clutch driver. An adapter may need to be needed or fabricated for other makes
and models of engines. Only engines with the narrow base oil pan can be tested.
Engines with the wide base (tall) oil pan cannot be tested at this time.

Magnetic Oil Drain Plugs with Tapered Threads and Square Head. A-1 Miller
oil drain plugs have a super strong rare earth/neodymium magnet. Five times
stronger than competitor's ceramic (ferrite) magnet and resists demagnetization.
Plugs listed below can be used on various other makes and models of
transmissions, transaxles, gearboxes and small engines. Tapered threads requires
no sealing gasket or sealant, and threads will not strip out when tightened.
To avoid cracking oil pan, do not over-tighten! When in doubt, use
plumber's thread sealing tape to insure proper sealing
of threads to prevent a possible oil leak. Universal application. Magnet
attracts and removes
ferrous
metallic wear fragments from the motor oil or transmission/gearbox to reduce
engine or gear/bearing wear. Sometimes some of the ferrous wear fragments
settle to the bottom of the oil pan and do not drain out with the oil when
performing an oil change, even when the oil is hot. The engine will last
much longer due to cleaner oil. Magnetic drain plugs are suitable for engines
with splash oil lubrication (no oil pump/filter).

 Super
Strong Rare Earth/Neodymium Magnets for Engines, Transmissions, Transaxles
and Gearboxes. Attracts and removes ferrous metallic wear fragments from
the lubricating oil inside an engine that does not have an oil pump with
an oil filter, or inside a transmission, transaxle or gearbox to lessen wear
and noise to gears and bearings. Sometimes some of the wear fragments settle
to the bottom of the oil pan or engine block and do not drain out with the
oil when performing an oil change, even when the oil is hot. Engine or
gears/bearings will last longer due to cleaner oil. Install magnet in bottom
of oil pan away from the oil dipper and any moving parts, or in bottom of
a transmission, transaxle or gearbox away from rotating gears and any moving
parts. Use
Krazy Glue,
Super Glue,
Gorilla Glue, or any industrial strength adhesive to secure
magnet in place. These rare earth/neodymium magnets are EXTREMELY strong!
Use caution when handling! Can be difficult to remove from a steel or cast
iron surface, are very brittle and can break easily if mishandled. An
ingenious and innovative concept by Brian Miller. Please accept no advertised
copycat products of this kind. (But I do appreciate them acknowledging my
intelligence.)

the engine to start quicker, idle smooth without stalling, and it will have
maximum power at top governed speed. Labor includes: regrind four valve faces
and seats, lap in valves with valve lapping compound, reset valve clearances
to factory specifications (on short block only), resurface both cylinder
heads on a wide sanding belt to remove warpage and restore flatness, reinstall
intake manifold and governor linkage. And being some valve guides wear
beyond specifications, there will be an extra charge for installing and reaming
new guides, if needed. The sheet metal, muffler, intake manifold and
governor linkage will need to be removed before bringing or shipping engine/short
block to A-1 Miller's shop. To save on shipping cost, only the cylinders
(removed from crankcase) and valves can be shipped in a USPS Large Flat Rate
Box. Use two boxes - place one box inside the another to double the strength,
and use rigid packing material to prevent the cooling fins from breaking
off by making contact with each cylinder.
But the
short block must be shipped in a sturdy wooden crate. Or
if you're the kind of person who
don't trust delivery/shipping companies (mis)handling your high-dollar and
fragile merchandise, you can make the long drive to
A-1 Miller's shop to personally
drop off and/or pick up your carburetor, clutch assembly, cylinders, engine,
transaxle, tractor, etc. "The road to a friend's house (or shop) is never
long."

NOTE: Before lapping in valves, it's best to have the
valve seats recut
or reground so the angle will be in correct alignment with the centerline
of the valve guides and so the valve face will make a full 360º contact
with the seat, or the valves will leak and the engine will lose compression,
be hard to start, be low on power and possibly make a popping sound through
the carburetor or out the exhaust. And be sure to set the clearances correctly,
too.

Regrind journal (crank pin) to next undersize. NOTE: Kohler crankshafts
can be reground to .030" undersize and still be safe to use with matching
undersized replaceable bearing
inserts installed in the connecting rod. And all crankshafts, rather
if they're automotive or small engine, are checked for straightness before
grinding. If they're bent or twisted, sometimes they can be straightened.
I also do offset crankshaft grinding to increase the length of the stroke
at no extra charge. NOTE:
Once installed and in operation, there is no warranty or guarantee of any
kind on crankshaft regrinds.

"Round Up" Rod Journal(s) and Resize Connecting Rods. The service is for
most makes and models of engines when an undersize connecting rod or
bearing inserts isn't available,
if the crankshaft is worn beyond .010" and needs to be reground again, the
journal can be reground to wherever it "cleans up" or is true again, then
the connecting rod can be resized so it'll fit the smaller undersize journal
with the factory recommended .0025" oil clearance. To resize the rod so it'll
fit to a few thousands of an inch smaller diameter crank journal, first,
metal is removed from the mating end of the rod cap, then the cap is fasten
to the rod. The big hole in the rod is now oblong or "egg shaped." Then the
big hole in the rod is honed until it's .002" larger than the diameter of
the crank journal. Honing reshapes the hole into a perfect circle again,
only smaller in diameter. This works very well and it lasts as long as an
ordinary STD size rod and crank journal. This can only be performed on a
rod with a good bearing surface. It cannot be done on a burnt or heavily
scored connecting rod because too much metal would need to be removed. If
you're interested, I will need your crankshaft and connecting rod(s).
NOTE - The maximum a connecting rod can be resized
to is .005" undersize. If it's resized more than .005", being the big hole
in the rod will be made excessively oblong or egg-shaped, which will allow
it to make less bearing surface contact around the crank journal after being
resized, due to the centrifugal force at 3,600 RPM, the big end of the rod
could become elongated (metal stretch) and might eventually knock and possibly
break. NOTE: Once installed
and in operation, there is no warranty or guarantee of any kind on crankshaft
regrinds. An innovative concept by Brian Miller,
because nobody else advertise this service .

45º. Has 8mm chrome-plated stem. Requires 8mm
reamer to enlarge guide. OEM Kohler valve
keepers/locks/collets and retainers or rotators can
be used with this valve. OEM valve discontinued from Kohler. Replaces Kohler
part #'s 45 016 02-S (intake) and 45 017 01-S (exhaust).
-
Machined by A-1 Miller's. $50.00 each, plus shipping & handling.
NOTE: Before lapping in valves, it's best to have the
valve seats recut
or reground so the angle will be in correct alignment with the centerline
of the valve guides and so the valve face will make a full 360º contact
with the seat, or the valves will leak and the engine will lose compression,
be hard to start, be low on power and possibly make a popping sound through
the carburetor or out the exhaust. And be sure to set the clearances correctly,
too.

-
Parts and labor includes: Completely disassemble engine, thoroughly clean
the block & all associated parts; install new STD size piston rings,
or bore cylinders and install new oversize piston/rings assemblies (price
will be higher for the boring and with a new oversize piston and rings);
regrind valves and seats, install new valve guides (if needed), resurface
cylinder heads (on large disc sander or wide, flat belt sander) to remove
warpage and restore flatness; rebuild carburetor, install new gaskets and
oil seals and install new tune-up kit. If engine was run out of oil and have
a broken connecting rod or rods, and internal damage has resulted, the price
will be higher for additional parts and labor (if rebuildable). If one or
both cylinders are scored and needs to be replaced with new piston and rings,
the price will be slightly higher. But cylinder scoring is rare. If either
cylinder wall and/or piston(s) is/are scored and needs replacing, the price
will be slightly higher. For these type of engines, we don't have the cylinders
bored oversize and install new oversize piston and rings because this would
be too cost prohibitive being we have good used cylinders and pistons in
stock. Add $150.00 for installation of A-1 Miller's
custom flywheel-trigger electronic ignition system. (KT-series engines
only.)

Perform Professional Valve
Job Only on opposed (flathead) twin cylinder Kohler KT-series and Magnum
engine models KT17, KT17 Series II, KT19, KT19 Series II, MV16, M18, MV18,
M20 and MV20. This service is for an engine that does not blow blue
smoke out the exhaust and burn oil. Performing a professional valve job restores
full compression, which allows the engine to start quicker, idle smooth without
stalling, and it will have maximum power at top governed speed. Labor includes:
regrind four valve faces and seats, lap in valves with valve lapping compound,
reset valve clearances to factory specifications (on short block only), resurface
both cylinder heads on a wide sanding belt to remove warpage and restore
flatness, reinstall intake manifold and governor linkage. And being some
valve guides wear beyond specifications, there will be an extra charge for
installing and reaming new guides, if needed. The sheet metal, muffler,
intake manifold and governor linkage will need to be removed before bringing
or shipping engine/short block to A-1 Miller's shop. To save on shipping
cost, only the cylinders (removed from crankcase) and valves can be shipped
in a USPS Large Flat Rate Box. Use two boxes - place one box inside the another
to double the strength, and use rigid packing material to prevent the cooling
fins from breaking off by making contact with each cylinder.
But the
short block must be shipped in a sturdy wooden crate. Or

Competition Pulling Engine Building | [Top
of Page]
 Garden tractor competition pulling
engine technology has changed a lot through the years. We can rebuild your
pulling engine with new technological parts so it'll produce more power,
be more competitive on the track and last longer than anticipated.
The below Ê are high output engines,
built and designed for competition pulling only, not general lawn and garden
use. No charging system included. 10hp (K241), 12hp (K301), 14hp (K321) or
16hp (K341) Kohler engines built by Brian Miller.
The "Built to the Max" Stock class engines runs at 4,000± governed RPM;
has a 9-1/2" cast flywheel with majority of fins removed then dynamically
and precision spin-balanced; high torque upper mount gear starter (mounting
bolts are below the starter motor); performance valve job with stock size
valves; A-1 Miller's reground/torque cam; medium performance valve springs;
#26 or #30 Kohler carburetor (depending on engine size) bored-out, reworked
and set up for gas; enlarged ports and polished (intake port made larger
only if it is smaller in diameter than the carburetor throttle bore); 2nd
or 3rd generation cylinder head milled .050"; connecting rod bored .020"
offset for piston pop out with bearing inserts. Also
included are: flywheel shroud (not chrome plated), cast iron or aluminum
oil pan, bolt-on header pipe and conventional Kohler point ignition system
installed with ignition timing preset. And being there is no oil filter on
Kohler cast iron block engines, an oil drain plug with a very strong
rare earth/neodymium magnet, or a very strong
rare earth/neodymium magnet will be glued to the inside bottom of the oil
pan or engine base to attract and remove
ferrous
metallic wear fragments from the motor oil to clean the oil so the engine
will last much longer. Because some of the ferrous metal wear fragments settle
to the bottom of the oil pan or engine block and do not drain out with the
oil when performing an oil change, even when the oil is hot. An innovative
and ingenious concept by Brian Miller because nobody else advertise this
trick online for a competition pulling engine.
A-1 Miller's rebuilt engines will be painted with high quality gloss black,
unless the customer specifies a different color or no paint at all. When
you receive the engine, install it in the tractor, add motor oil to the proper
level, install the fuel hose, add fuel, connect the ignition and starter
wires, connect the throttle controls, and the engine will be ready to start.
Carburetor adjustments will be initially preset, but due to the altitude
level, barometric pressure and air temperature, final idle speed, idle air/fuel
mixture and high speed air/fuel mixture adjustments may need to be made after
the engine is started and warmed up. It'll have no charging system. Use a
remote battery charger to recharge the battery before each pulling event.

Competition Pulling Engine Freshening
Service
Ê This service
is for pulling engines only that have been previously built, and needs the
basic parts and labor to revive the power. It is not a complete engine rebuild.
A typical pulling engine will last an average of 25 pulls or 3 years of use.
After that, the piston rings become worn, and the engine may lose power when
under load and puff gray/blue smoke out the exhaust and/or crankcase breather
vent. When this happens, it's time for a freshening job. If interested, we
will need an updated copy of your association/club's engine rules so when
the engine is freshened, it will be legal in its class, but still competitive.
Click or tap here for proper break-in (wear-in)
oils and procedure for rebuilt engines. Add
$110.00 - $152.00 for installation of A-1 Miller's custom
crank trigger or flywheel
triggered electronic ignition
system. (For competition pulling
only.) A 50% deposit may be required
on certain engine refresh jobs. Deposit is non-refundable if labor and machine
work is invested in the engine, and parts are purchased for the engine. Remaining
balance of total amount is due upon completion of engine
refresh. [Top of Page]

Break-In (Wear-In) Oils and Procedure for Ordinary
Rebuilt (Lawn and Garden) Engines -
First of all, full synthetic/organic motor oil will allow an engine to run
cooler and last longer. But the rule of thumb for different types of motor
oils are: Full synthetic motor oil is mainly for high performance/racing
engines that operate at high RPMs for a long time. Synthetic blend motor
oil, which is a blend of about 50% organic and 50% petroleum, is for engines
that occasionally operate at high RPMs, but also operate at normal speeds.
And conventional/petroleum motor oil is safe to use just for engines that
operate at normal speeds at all times.
 Break-In (Wear-In) Oils and Procedure for Fresh-Built
Competition Pulling Engines -
For proper break-in (wear-in) of a rebuilt or fresh built
pulling engine, use a high quality conventional (petroleum-based) SAE 30
weight motor oil containing a high zinc content anti-wear additive, such
as
ZDDP
(Zinc
dithiophosphate), which places a protective coating between all internal
moving parts, will get hot, create a wear pattern and produce a hardened
surface, especially flat tappet lifters and camshaft lobes. Don't be afraid
to run a fresh-built or freshly rebuilt pulling engine at speeds it is designed
for. Just run the engine normally for 4-5 pulls.
Do not allow the engine to idle at a slow speed
(below 1,200 RPM) for a long period of time to break it in! It needs to run
at full governed speed (3,200 or 3,600 RPMs) so the oil dipper on the connecting
rod can splash the crankcase oil up and thoroughly lubricate/coat critical
moving parts. And it's good to set the idle on the high side regardless of
the type of oiling system (splash or oil pump) so the flywheel fins will
blow more cool air over the engine. Then drain the oil while
it's hot, and either continue to use ordinary SAE 30 oil, or switch to a
quality 20W50 synthetic blend or full synthetic oil. Use no oil additives.
Change the oil every 25 pulls or once a year. Synthetic-blend oils get about
half as hot as conventional oils. But full synthetic oils don't get near
as hot as conventional oils do. It's more slippery and remains cooler even
after the engine have been in operation for several hours to better protect
internal parts for longer engine life.
If the tractor is geared correctly, the pulling engines I build should not
run out of power at the end of the pull. It should spin the tires. But there's
some things that needs to be checked after a few pulls as the engine breaks-in
and parts wear into each other. For gas fuels, the ignition timing needs
to be set at 22º BTDC. And make sure the high speed air/fuel mixture
screw is set so the engine runs smooth at high RPM. Also, if a
high-output/performance ignition coil is used, it requires two standard capacity
(Kohler) condensers/capacitors or one heavy duty, high capacity/performance
condenser/capacitor. This is so the coil will produce more voltage. And with
a high-output/performance coil, the spark plug gap can be set at .060". With
an ordinary coil, it should be set at .035". The valve to lifter clearances
may need to be reset at .010" for the intake and .014" for the exhaust.
Furthermore, when a new or rebuilt engine needs to "break-in", what the term
"break-in" actually means is the moving internal parts that make contact
with each other needs to "wear-in" with each other so they'll produce a wear
pattern and last longer. Any new or rebuilt engine, rather if it's for general
lawn and garden use or for competition pulling, needs to fully break-in (wear-in)
for it to produce full power. Rings don't "seat," they break-in (wear-in),
or wear-in with the cylinder wall, and they wear-in quickly. But the valves
are the parts that needs to "seat." Being the valve faces and seats have
different angles (30º/31º or 45º/46º, respectively),
the valve faces needs to wear into the seats to seal in the compression 100%.
Wear-in will produce a 30½º or 45½º angle on both the
matching valve face and seat. The harder material the valves are made of,
the longer it takes for them to "seat" or wear-into the seats. Some pullers
tell A-1 Miller's that the engines I built for them run better every time
they pull them. I remember a few years ago when I performed a valve job on
my truck engine. It ran good and produced plenty of power, but I noticed
after about 1,000 or so miles, it produced a little more power. I realized
that this is because the valve faces wore into the seats, forming a perfect
seal. So again, a fresh-built pulling engine will not produce full power
the first few times it's ran. Go here for more information:

If shipping an engine, and if the crated engine weighs no more than 150 lbs.,
use only
Fastenal or
FedEx Ground for dependability. The average crated cast
iron block Kohler engine weighs just under 150 lbs. Use this website to calculate
the shipping cost for your engine:
FedEx Rates and Transit Times. Contact your local
Fastenal or
FedEx Ground shipping center for more details and to schedule
a pickup or drop off the crated engine at your local
Fastenal or
FedEx Ground shipping center.
Fastenal and
FedEx Ground are the only reasonably-priced shipping service
that I know of for items up to 150 lbs. US Mail only ship up to 70 lbs. And
FedEx Freight would cost almost as much as an engine is worth. If your engine
is too heavy to go with FedEx Ground, partially disassemble it and send the
lightweight parts in a USPS Large or Medium Flat Rate Box, and then send
the main short block with FedEx Ground, the crated engine can be shipped
through Fastenal. This also works better to save money on shipping costs.
You can visit A-1 Miller's shop to drop off and pick up your engine to save
on crating and shipping charges.
When the work is completed, I'll contact you with the total including return
shipping & handling. For payment options for parts ordered or services
performed, or to make a donation to my websites, I accept cash (in person),
USPS Postal Money Orders, cashier's checks, business checks, MasterCard,
VISA, Discover, American Express (please add 2.5% to the total for the
credit/debit card processor's surcharge),
Western
Union Money Transfer or
MoneyGram Money Transfers.
(If the engine is for a specific purpose and parts must be special ordered,
full payment will be required right after your order is placed or your
debit/credit card will be charged for the full amount or as a deposit.) Or
you can pay A-1 Miller's through PayPal. My PayPal account name is my email
address, and be sure to mention in PayPal a description of what the payment
is for. If sending a money order or cashier's check, please include a note
in the envelope with your name, complete mailing address, phone number and
a description of what the payment is for. My mailing address and phone number
are below Ê. And I will ship your rebuilt
engine/parts to you as soon as I receive your payment.
To ship a transaxle, this is easier. They don't require an enclosed crate.
Just place the transaxle on the center of a
shipping pallet (of the appropriate size) and stretch wrap
(use low-cost ratchet nylon tie-downs) to securely fasten it to the pallet.
Use at least 6 layers of stretch wrap or several tie-downs. This should work
really well. The shipping weight of a Cub Cadet cast iron case transaxle
when strapped to a wooden pallet is approximately 215 lbs.

Solid motor mounts are an
alternative to replacing deteriorated OEM "ISO" rubber engine mounts, which
is usually associated with a damaged "flexible" 3-pin clutch drive plate
and damaged clutch components. These fit IH Cub Cadet "Quiet Line" garden
tractor models 482, 800, 1000, 1100, 1200, 1204, 1210, 1211, 1250, 1282,
1340, 1450 and 1650. If the engine in your tractor is mounted on angled cradles
with rubber mounts between the cradles and tractor frame, then these are
what your tractor need.
Direct replacement for OEM
ISO-rubber mounts with no modifications to the tractor whatsoever. The solid
motor mounts install between the engine mounting cradles and tractor frame.
A thick flat washer fastens on top of the cradles. Torque the bolts at 35
ft. lb. Can be easily removed if rubber mounts are desired instead.
(Added
3/17/20) OEM Cub Cadet Engine Rubber ISO-Mount Kit. Replace deteriorated
rubber ISO-mounts to lessen chances of clutch drive plate breakage and so
less wear will occur to the clutch assembly. Designed for IH-built Cub Cadet
"Quiet Line" models 800, 1000 and 1200, including models 1250, 1450 and 1650
with a hydrostatic disconnect attachment. All of these models have the engine
mounted on rails with ISO rubber mounts. These rubber mounts can also be
adapted for use on many other makes and models of small engine equipment
to reduce engine vibration throughout the frame.

Coming Soon - Detailed Illustrated
Plans on How to Construct a Professional Pull-Back and Self-Propelled Garden
Tractor Pulling Sled. FYI - The
professionally-built self-propelled pulling sled is the only one I've ever
built (click the picture to the right to see a larger image of this sled),
and I got it right the first time, with very few changes or modifications
that had to be made to it. I guess I'm just one of those kind of guys that
knows what he's doing. Pullers really like pulling our sled, too. They say
it's the best sled they've ever pulled. (Not bragging, just stating a fact.)
By the way - Track Master sled is engineered so well (by Brian Miller), that
other sled builders/owners have copied my well thought-out and proven design.
And I do appreciate them acknowledging my intelligence. Anyway, I have lots
of work to do in my shop and I work on the sled plans in my spare time. As
soon as my plans with an inventory list of parts to use are perfected, I'll
post the update in my websites with the prices of the plans. Remember -
Perfection takes time. If it's worth having, it's worth waiting for. Also,
I plan to acquire a bigger shop and may build high quality garden tractor
pulling sleds in the future to offer for sale. Please call 573-256-0313 (shop)
or 573-881-7229 (cell; text or voice message), or email
