Twin Disc application question??
Posted: Nov 10th, '06, 11:33
Here's the question;
Engine is rated at 320hp.
Twin Disc MG5050A rated for 365hp....$3,800
Twin Disc MG5061A rated for 463hp....$5,000
Given that the 5050 series is well within the rated capacity on this application, is it worth another $1,200 bucks for the next size up and have the massive over kill factor. Money is always a factor, but....
Both gears fit, the 70 lb heavier 5061 is not a big deal.
What do you guy's think?
