They are a whole lot heavier than they look. A memorable sale was done in eBay. 1100 and 12KW head. Guy drives 12 hours to pick it up in a tiny Subaru car😕, not sure what he thought he was buying? After pondering the situation we removed the engine from the frame and stuck it in the trunk and tarp strapped the lid which was a foot from closing. We them stuck the head in the rear seat and cut the frame into four pieces and stuffed in in the passenger side. He pumped the tires up to 50 PSI and off he went dragging the street at every bump. Never heard from him again,, guess he made it???

Tanman,

Those things are monsters!
Make sure that there are no women or children nearby when you first start it.
The fear that is instilled by the engine noise causes them to break into tears and later causes nightmares :o

I started it last night with a battery, cracked right of in about 30 degrees F. Seems to be put together a little better than the laidong 1115 I had a while back (purely subjective observation).

It is a beast

Dude, that's a 195 idling, not an 1115.
