Answer
Hi, Sounds like Fun!!
I'm not sure where to get a larger pully, You might have some luck going to your local junk yard! You will have to do some modifactions to it but that is half the fun! But also you need to change the gears in the rearend & if it has governer on it take it off! If you want to realy get more HP then take the head and have it bored out & Go with a larger piston! Get the carb jets bored & put hi output coil on it! & that sould put some wind behind you!
Good Luck & keep me posted on your project! I'm realy in to this one!
