The one I had, 3hp 1500rpm job was running a genny in my first shed, ran that through a Mk2 Escort muffler and all you could hear was the tappets and belts squeaking.

Just been reading through the post Matt and I agree with you, As much as A Lister A in a Nice engine house would look really good its not a good Idea if your just wanting to cut a couple od pecies and then stop. As much As I don't really like them, a Petter A or A1 would be the most practical!matt86 wrote:a bit to heavy to be honest ...

A mk20 or 25 would do the job Matt but a Petter is better by a golden mile...
