Hi! Does anyone now if this Hi Performance Impeller Kit Part# 532187724 fit my new Husqvarna 15530SB-LS? I am not sure if this kit will fit because it is a new model for 2009 and i think older huskys used the Tecumseh engine and mine has a 15.5 B&S Snow Max. Do they have same drivshaft dimensions so same pulley`s can be used on both engines. Or is it other reasons why this won`t work? I think this kit will give me the same performance as the PRO series huskys that have HIGH SPEED IMPELLER? The only difference i`ve found in the 15530SB-LS and 16530SB-XLS part`s is the impeller pulley and impeller belt. Am i far of? Philip

I am a bit confused here with the modifications you guys are trying to make. My money is on the engineers that designed and built the snowblower. Increasing the pulley is a silly idea all you may accomplish is placing additional loads on the engine reducing the performance of the snowplower in deep or heavy wet snow. The other mod talked abought is a silly impeller kit once again all you are doing is placing additional load by increasing the friction on the impeller. One other point with the impeller kit if installed you better make sure the impeller area is free of icy snow or you will do serious damage to the belts or the main auger bearing when you start the machine next time. If you want to make sure your snowblower is working as designed make sure everything is set-up as per factory specs. Oh yes if you want the impeller to spin a bit faster why not increase the engine rpm by 100 and go and screw with something else. My two sense worth. Later
If you are getting paid for what you are doing No matter how much you Enjoy it, It's a Job

Edgenet, I'm not looking for criticism just info so your opinion is neither wanted or valid. Besides, the "engineers as you put it" made the high speed impeller kit and they are engineered for some of the husq models of the same hp which they feel IS enough to handle it. We're not talking about a 6hp here, more like double that and years ago a 8-10 hp with a 30" cut was doing the same so a 13hp+ will have no trouble carrying the extra load. I'm working through with a solution! If you don't want to do it to your machine that's your choice...Here's your 2 cents back!

Thanks Guys...I hate guys like that! I am waiting on a new belt to come in and I measured the old one which was tight, 37&1/4" so I ordered a 5L390W which is a 5LK390 heavy duty to try which should be 1 3/4" longer to see if it fits OK. I may have to go to a 40" (5L400W) but it's only less then $20 so I'll give it a try. Would be nice to know what the belt for the kit is suppose to be but Oh well, trial and error. I'll figure it out!
