DatsunHealey Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 In case you need more logging equipment, here is an L20B powered buzz saw.

Stoffregen Motorsports Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 Man, I have that identical saw sitting here. I know what I'm doing with it now. Maybe I'll throw an LS1 in it. 1 Quote Link to comment

mxzlimbo Posted January 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 I only paid $200.00 for this log splitter. Got my money out of it so far. So I have to put another $200 - 400 still cheaper and COOLER than an wimpy motor. I have used it for 2 years and this will go threw anything you put in front of it. The pump, cylinder, valve are worth that. If I put an 8 or 10 HP motor no one will want to talk about it then. I get people that stop and want to see it run. It isn't that heavy my ATV pulls it no problem, when I pull it behind my truck you don't even know it is there. So far for fixing the motor the radiator needed to be fixed & flushed ($80.00) which I think was the problem, Timing chain Holder tool ($6.00) Water Pump ($56.28) L20B HEAD GASKET SET ($40.00). $182.28 so far. Need to have the carb rebuilt any suggestions? Thank you to all that have given helpful advise to fixing this motor. 1 Quote Link to comment
converted_to_datsun Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 You can get a carb rebuild kit for 20 bucks from an auto parts store. I rebuilt mine in a hour and it worked great 1 Quote Link to comment
hang_510 Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 you should figure out how to make it drive so you dont have to tow it. i have several L16 boat anchors in my back yard... do they count as equipment? with or without chain? 2 Quote Link to comment
