Default Re: FE290 Rebuild

Yeah, I went back a month or so ago to look for those videos. Nowhere to be found. I wanted to try to figure out that engine stand that would flip from vertical to horizontal so you could access the block from any angle. Anyhow, I had three gas club cars (I say had, because I just acquired another from a cart "junkyard" that I was going to use parts from to build my turf 2, but there's not a whole lot wrong with it so now it's four...) and intend to rebuild each as time and money permit.

As for removing the counterbalance block, I'm totally cool with that. What precautions should I take to prevent six grand and blowing the head off of this thing? I currently have the Rev limiter disabled and the governor zip tied ��... And no, the rebuild wasn't because I've already blown it up, the rebuild is a different engine.
I don't need a bunch of speed out of this one, it'll do around 20 now on 22" tires and that should suffice.

Thanks for any info you can provide
