SuperDave,
Why would you want to increase HP on a tractor that is already pretty high in the HP to pound category?
If you need to do more work, consider a heavier tractor like a L3130 or 3430...I doubt you will get extra HP to the ground on the B7800...and if can't couple the HP to the ground, tricking up the engine really does little for you...except maybe wear the engine out faster... /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

You are right. The tractor is light and quite often when I blade my driveway (1 mile long) I need to fill the FEL with gravel so I don't spin. I am considering fluid in the tires for the added weight. My thought on power was perhaps better air flow. The intake seems relatively restrictive, and hoped there was a higher flow air filter and perhaps exhaust. Thanks for the reply. :

I would highly reccommend loading the tires. If you have seen improvement with the FEL full of gravel, the loaded tires will make a world of difference. There have been several threads talking about the options. Lots of good info.
Good luck
