    Cat 400x drum brake

    Wow! I can't believe he still has some. That's incredible. Before I pull the trigger, how well do they actually work? I have a clutch brake on the bike currently (which works well but I want to run a torque converter).

    Cat 400x drum brake

    Does anyone have information on how to do a drum brake/sprocket set up like the cat r4002? Did they have different wheels? I don't see how a drum sprocket would line up properly on the current wheel

    Did you use 1.3 ratio rockers for Honda/clone engines? Also what's the part number on the 5hp head? The only part number I've seen is 37474 but I'm not sure if that's the smaller one.

    Teccumseh Powersport History

    Does anyone have any info on when the powersport line was introduced? And specifically when the OHH engines were designed and first sold? I'm just curious about the history of these motors. A lot of people don't like them but I do.

    Repro Cat Switch Plate?

    Has anyone made reproduction switch plates for HPE cat bikes? I don't want an original since the bike is nowhere close to original. I just don't have the means to make one. Any substitutes?
