good build???

[arcaine]

im wondering about a good mower setup.
i have a ranch king mower with a 16.5hp briggs ohv, it has a 613, 7 speed peerless.
can i make this work? and do you have parts for it???
id like to keep the build within the 400 dollar range if possible.
any help would be great!

any chassis will work, most parts are universal and building a racemower does sometimes require a bit of imagination and fabricating skills. Hard toi build a good race mower now days for 400.00. What class were you thinking about building for.

well i wasnt really planning on running a class, i was just wanting a fun project to work on, something to cruise around my tiny town on, hoping to hit 25-30 mph.
i can get all the fabricating done by one of my buddies, but my big concern was the 7 speed trans. i have seen ppl with 3 4 5 speed builds but i havent seen any with 7 speeds, will it still hold up ok?

thats a varible speed drive train they suck. You need a gear driven multi speed transaxle.
