Hatz E79 RPM increase- Will I blow it up?

[smokyjoe]

Hi Y'all,

I'm wondering..... will my "in good condition but well broken in" Hatz E79 blow up at 3600 RPM? In its previous application (construction vibratory roller) it was set up to run at 3000 RPM all day long, I'd like to raise the governor to 3600 RPM in order to get a bit more speed (and horsepower, hopefully!) out of it when needed. I've read of a few folks doing it with other engines, but I'd like to know if anyone has had any direct experience with this particular engine, and what the general opinion is of "overclocking" this lump in general. It seems well-balanced and smooths right out at 3000.

Thanks,
Brad
