Let me give alittle back ground:
I have a well running 16HP Briggs Vtwin Vangaurd commercial engine. It is/was an 8K generator in its past life. The generator is literally fried inside, melted wire, etc. Is there someone that has built their own generator that might know of a cost effective way to pair this engine up with another generator. I was planning on using this unit as a back up power source for my DEEP well pump at my BOL. Any advise is appreciated! |

A good head is gonna cost some big bucks. I would not skimp and a generator head. YMMV |
