Hd800 small bell ?

[anbdiesel]

What's the best way to come up with a small bell 800 ?
What block could ya put an 800 crank in or could you machine down a large bell 800 to a small one ? Just thinking it would be fun in a G1000 like when the old 504d finally gives up haha

The only other block an 800 crank bolts into is the 585. You won't find a factory small bell 800 unless you have tons of money to buy one from a collector who has it, IF you could even then get them to let it go lol. I've heard rumors of a guy in MN that's taken the big bells and made them into small bells though.....

I think there's a guy in south Texas who might be ready to sell his G1000. I can get you pictures if you want, or I think there's some video's too.

Just kidding about the tractor-you know who's it is. I want a small bell 800 too. You know I could find a G1000 (or A4T) to put it in.

Yes there is a guy in MN that can make a big bell 800 into a small bell I've seen one he's done you almost can notice it either

Any chance someone can give the contact info for that guy in Mn

Wondering if you had any more info on the machining or the guy that turns big bell into small bells.
