I could easily get more power, more RPM would mean more power too, but that would also mean it could break things more easily too, and that isn't what I want either.
That's very good to hear. Did you have to do anything else to you setup besides install the bigger pistons (besides the increased RPM)? No carb work or anything like that? I would like to stay as close to stock as possible for both the tractors sake and my my wallet as well.
I also don't want to get to carried away with running up the engine RPM. Like I said the biggest reason I want more HP is at the PTO. I would like to get the boost while staying fairly close to 540 RPM at the PTO.
