14hp B&S Vanguard V-twin - what can I do with it?

My garage cleaning continues and I dug out a generator that I couldn't repair (short in the wiring harness leading to the gen). Motor runs great and shows as brand new.
I need a cool new project - garage cleaning sucks.
What would you do/build with it?

I don't have a 4 wheeler. I know - loss of 10 man points.
Thinking about building a small boat maybe. Something cool for the kids.

Would work.
Monday going down to New Orleans, I saw a 4 engine airboat that was about 25' long. Couldn't get a picture.
It was one big arse boat.Posted on 7/24/13 at 10:08 am to meauxjeaux2
Best kids present ever.
I'm going hunt for a horizontal shaft motor now.
I need all of this.

I put a blower on one from a Pontiac Bonneville SSEI- still have it. Makes 14 pounds of boost at about 4000 rpm.
I think it may be the baddest arse mud motor ever made- even though I've never put it on said mud motor to actually try.

you're underdriving the shite out of that little arse roots type blower with that big arse pulley.Posted on 7/24/13 at 10:19 am to DownshiftAndFloorIt
Knowing how to weld and machine isn't always a good thing.
The funny thing is that I started with a Kehin flat slide carb- it would pull so much air across it that the carb would freeze up and contract so much that the throttle would stick wide open.
Ended up with a 33mm (I think) Kehin round slide from like an '86 CR250- the round slide seemed to be more ok with the cold and would allow the throttle to open and close right.

C'mon goddamnit- how many other people you know have sucessfully blown a Vanguard? If you come to Raceland today, you can crank it up and drive it around. It starts, runs, idles, works.
It's on a tube chassis model of a '33 Ford (kinda) except it has pulling tires on it. I wouldn't know since you're such an expert and all, but when I hooked it to the NTPA sled in Minneapolis, all I could see was 14 psi on the boost gauge.

Fishfighter, a 4 engine boat like this?

A friend was using the first one he built on a construction project, very cool to watch. Chain electric also has several for work now. I have seen theirs in and around Fourchon several times.

Side shaft engine?
Build a mini chopper with dual exhaust.
