I wouldn't recommend it!! I vividly recall an incident involving an Oliver 1750 and an uncle many years ago. It had been snowing and he had several parking lot plowing contracts to fulfill. The 1750's governor had malfunctioned so he bypassed the governor and rigged the throttle handle to work the carb throttle shaft directly. The experiment lasted only a few seconds. It ended when the engine over-reved and bunch of busted engine parts exited via a hole the size of a grapefruit punched thru the side of the block.
