looks fancy brian!
is line boring a tricky thing for 25hp engines? is the tool head smaller or something?

a few things similar to 36hp... different heads, all the valves are the same size, different pistons and cylinders, manifold, teeny carb, D regulator, 25hp fuel pump, different pulley setup (you can see why they'd change to a heavier version) different heaterboxes and single tailpipe muffler... unfortunately, all these odd parts are harder to come by than 36hp ones... $$$

lacking enough fuel pump pressure at first, then no problem after it's adjusted. After 35 years of sitting, it was a happy sound to hear her running.
