Hi Guys,
Just wondering if anyone knows what the actual horsepower would be on a 84 Liquifire, Sportfire,& Trailfire?
I wouldn't mind knowing this info for display signs for sled shows.
Thanks!

Horsepower?
Re: Horsepower?
As I recall the Liquifire was, in the words of John Deere, a sensible 65HP.

Yep. Liquifires had 65 stock hp. If memory serves, Sportfires made 48, 440 Trailfires 46, and 340 Trailfires were 36.

Re: Horsepower?
Not to disagree with anyone, but SnowGoer stated the 84 Sportfire was 42 hp, and Deere rated it with 15% more power than the Trailfire. Agree that the 82-84 Liquifire was rated for 65 hp.
I hope this helps,
