noise cancelling works best on steady noises? sudden infrequent noises seem to slip through? used on in one of our older tractors and the squeaking of the seat drove me crazy..not sure about the later generation ones? they may have figured this out by now? would think they would work well on the modified engines though

considering Canada's population is basically 1/10 of the US? tell me how destroying our system will even put a dent in your surplus? Don't forget Canada's dairy farmers do not receive any form of government subsidies! and yes I have a pull tractor but with all the extra "carbon" taxes and other costs pushed on to us by our governments? I may not be out much either?

how much does it hit? could you take a bit of material from the head to clear the pump? had same issue with a genisis head? had head already installed then seen this issue too? i made a spacer to off set pump one belt grove on the crank pulley,otherwise would have taken some off head if it was not installed yet.

try to keep show moving? have some one aggressively lining up the competitors? but that also requires a quick working track crew..and enough equipment!

whatever pump you use? it has to have the narrower governer housing because how close you are to the block, adapter ring can be made by any good machinists. may as well get the timing cover hole opened up enough? so you can change timing easier! allows you to move pump gear a tooth or whatever without having to pull front cover machine shop can make you a gear hub for that pump too. sometimes yo

will likely get flamed? i witnessed a pull truck that drove on to track, backed up, tightened chain? then shut it down? said he was broke? then wanted to be towed off? apparently had issues? from last event? the announcer was at a loss for words for a bit. should mention this event was behind schedule and this ate up a lot of time!
