Looks very nice, curious about the $. I am also still curious about these 6 and 7HP engines on 26" decks, like this Exmark and the Snapper 26". But then again, maybe they're really 10 to 13HP engines. LOL Maybe my math is iffy. 26 x 3.1416= 81.68 / 12= 6.81 feet for one rev of a blade tip x 3600 RPM= 24,500 or so feet per minute. If I got a couple of Snapper Hi Lifts, can I reverse rotation with an adjustable cam gear, and adjust the spark timing, and start the engine in the reverse direction. Then I could fly to work on my lawnmower. In honor of lint's Zen Master, Lawn Chair Larry. The manual says tip speed of 18,500. But a little govenor adjustment help and a carb recommendation from Ritchie, I think I would be airborne.

Hi Guys! I believe the FJ 180 is the same engine I have on my Toro Pro Line 22177 that I bought last year. The FJ 180 was listed at 6.5 HP and was reportedly a different engine than the 6hp used on the 2004 Pro Line. My son is looking for a mower larger than a 21".We will check out this 26" and report back . I hope it's a good mulcher!! Marc

Maybe they did have the mower last year. I just did not see it on the site or in the store. I was looking for Smitty's Snapper.
