Blasting around on the AMT 622 (NOT A GATOR) 

haha

Hell yeah man. :) I don't know if i explained it in the video, but earlier in the day, mike seriously turned to me and said, "Tom! What album is this from?" haha, talking about his shirt. But he was serious. I just started laughing cause i thought he was joking.

Haha, nice. Speaking of good albums, you ever listen to the first couple from Blackfoot? Both seem to be really underrated. Flyin High is great, has a good southern rock style to it.

Nah, i haven't man, I'll check that out man, thanks. The southern rock thing mostly doesn't work for me. Kinda always just leaves me wanting to listen to more of the british blues rock from the mid to late 60's. Thats kinda the stuff i'm really into. Thats what Black Sab was born out of too.

haha :) Yeah, i was asking for it. I'm still gonna keep up the good fight though! :)

Thank you sir. It is an overhead valve though... :( But hey, the willys is around in the video, at least in the background. And that thing is extremely flathead.

hahah. :) Yeah man! Mike did that. The one day i came home from work, and mike was already here, driving around with those googly eyes on there. haha. he got them on amazon i think. Wasn't expecting that.

haha, Yeah man. Sabbath is where its at. If you sign up to get coupons and stuff from harbor freight, i think i've seen the engine for as little as 300 bucks. Yeah, i have one of their mailers right here, and there is a coupon in it for that engine for 300 bucks. www.harborfreight.com/engines-generators/gas-engines/13-hp-420cc-ohv-horizontal-shaft-gas-engine-epa-60340.html here is the coupon code if you're interested,11503872

But you would need a different clutch, because the kawasaki has a tapered shaft. So you'd have to spend a few hundred bucks on a comet clutch too.

I'm guessing something like this. It has to be take the same width as the AMT belt. www.ebay.com/itm/Comet-Salsbury-780-Drive-Clutch-Vanguard-PUG-MAX-1-Duster-302405A-converter-NEW-/142279554652?hash=item212085b65c:m:mw3cAz7KzFHU84RsT8PgGCQ&vxp=mtr

you think it would be pretty much a direct bolt in? main reason I'm considering doing it is the engine on mine runs good but I have a 4 wheeler gator that needs a motor .. I'm thinking about swapping my kawasaki on to the 4 wheel and buying the 13 hp and putting it on the amt but I don't really want to go through all the hassle of its just going to be about the same machine after motor swap .. dose yours vibrate on acceleration? how loose are your chains ? mine when there is no tension both sides of the chain ( top and bottom) sit on the little sprocket in the center

It might be a direct bolt in, but it might not. There are all the specs for the engine, mounting holes, and height. I was kinda un sure about the height. Because in the amt, the Kawasaki is pretty close to what's right above it. So If i ever did it i was going to check that before buying anything. Mine does not vibrate on acceleration. But its got tons and tons of problems now. The one axle is massively bent, the wheel just wobbles around, and yeah, both chains are crazy loose. Stretched. Basically it needs new chains. I'm just waiting till one of them goes. Sounds like your chains might bee too loose. I think the 13HP engine would add a decent amount of extra power. Though the internal setup of the clutch effects the way power is used, and delivered, so i'm not sure how that would effect it.

:) haha, guess i was asking for that. ;)

Hey. Nope, it isn't.

haha, you son of a bitch. :)

hahaha i cant wait for snowmobiling videos this winter again...those seem to be my favorite, next to the 3 wheeler rides and willys rides

Me too man! They are pretty much the most fun romps we get in. Rain romps are my absolute favorites, but those are very few and far between. And they don't last that long. Seems like anytime its raining for many hours, its cold rain.

Damn it! :) haha, i'm never gonna give up on it though. Its a pretty sweet AMT.

Hey man. I feel like someone asked me that recently, but i can't remember what video it was on. Yep, all 4 wheels. Its an open differential, with a chain connecting both wheels to each other, and the drive sprockets. Pretty simple cool design. Kinda like a 6x6.

hahaha, what made you think of that?

Yeah, i... kinda look older too in a way. But i'm only 32, so i don't really have any interest or need to look younger at the moment. haha :) The top of the head hair is only cut because of the balding thing, and how pathetic it looks for a bald dude to have whats left of his hair long, and the beard cutting thing is only to make homeowners who don't know me, less nervous when i'm working in their houses. Because that makes me super nervous when they are.

Hmmmm. That doesn't have anything to do with this video though. We almost certainly went through at least a full bottle of rum that day though, so I suppose being alcoholics isn't really much better. Just doesn't have the insanity and paranoia of Meth addiction. Still not a good way to live life though. But thanks for insinuating that we are Meth heads. Your a great dude. Keep up the good work.

Ehh, yeah. I debated on which way to go with that... When i wrote it out properly with 'I', it sounded pretentious. Something about having a video where we are just being drunk idiots driving around an AMT, then speaking so properly... Just didn't work. Maybe i'll rework the title... But yeah, Mike and I just doesn't fit the video...

yeah... hah, I can't help but take him seriously though. What year was that from?

+tommartyn No idea, was just doing some reading the other day and there was a bunch of Bowie quotes.
