Hi all,
I acquired a power torque for doing some work, but it was on a 4 stroke base and just would not cut low...... I also had another 4 stroke base..........
Thinking, I was going to cut 25mm off the bottom, but decided to lower the inside with a sledge hammer... easy. I just have to adjust it a little. The fuel tank would not fit the new shaped base....
Anyway it cuts great..........

dont wish to rain on your parade there speedy.........but there is no 4 stroke base with Victa's, so your inovative solution to lowering your cut will be ground breaking, most likely quite liturally.......!

It wouldn't cut low enough because the Tornado (19") models ran a longer boss and crank than the usual 18" cut Victa 2 strokes, they are about 20mm longer. From the cowl it appears your mower has been re-engined from a 18" model.

Finally found the right frame for a short shaft power torque.
It has so much power. The lawns up here in Bundy just grow thick with the heat and rain..
