I do not think they are in that regard. Adding the extra circuits means I can keep the auxillary PTO just for the quick attach plate. That is a nice mod

Would you buy another PT?

Well, I'm approaching 1,0000 hours on my CH-25 powered one, similar to what MossRoad has. I'll have to say that it is the single best investment in tools that I have ever made. There's no way I'd attempt to maintain my current hillside property without one...
I'm waiting on someone to install and try one of these Chinese twin cylinder diesels, and report back:
22HP V Twin Small Diesel Engine $1499 New Air Cooled 1" Shaft 2XPOWER of 10HP | eBay
My Kohler is still doing fine, but operating on these hillsides, outside it's design spec, it's now starting to blow a puff of white smoke on start-up. There will come a day when I pay the price for abusing it -- just as I have had to pay the price of increased torque from my huge wheel motors... :laughing:

Didn't look at the actual dimensions, but at first glance it looks like it could fit in the PT4xx tub. Pretty cool.

Just curious.
R2V840-Q diesel engine, View Diesel engine, WINSUN Product Details from Nantong Winsun Power Co., Ltd. on Alibaba.com
No where on their page does it say 22 HP
Can they obtain 22HP from a 60 lb diesel engine?
Compare that to the 45 HP diesel in the Power-Trac. Both are air cooled
One add says peak 22 HP, but is that like peak watts on speakers, and is that like avg power = .707 peak power.

I'm guessing that is 60 kilograms -- roughly 132 pounds... in fact the Net Weight spec is labeled 59 kg.
As far as peak power, that's common for what's reported on small engines.

I believe you are right about the kg.
1 kg = 2.20462 lbs, so 60 kg= 132.27 lbs
