Repower

[larry]

I own hull # 104 and would like to talk to any one who has repowered from an Atomic 4 to a Kabota diesel. Larry

Take a look at the Beta 25. It is a fine engine. Everything is in front for maintenance; they are available with atomic 4 mounts and are a Kabuta block as are the Universals.

I agree Jack. I'm looking to talk to someone who made that upgrade from the A4 to the Beta 25 or the 28. Specifically I wanted to find out what kind of access there is to the the back of the engine and shaft, i.e. the stuffing box. Larry

there is a fellow on the West coast who installed a Beta 25. If you send me an email ( [e-mail]) , I will give you his contact info. Also, I would not consider the Beta 28 as it is the same large block as the 30 but has been derated to 25 HP to meet EPA standards.

Thanks Cheeryo. I'm at [e-mail] I'll send you an email as well. Larry
