Peyote grows in the southwest, doesn't it?
I was looking at my old vanguard, it looks like the rotor(?) fan is supposed to force air through the heat shields. I'm thinking an air coold engine shouldn't be closed in. If I rebuild this I'm going to leave off the shrouds and see. People had the same problems with chrome engine accessories on Harleys. I forgot to question. Is the flywheel/pistons lubricated by splash? If this is the case then higher rpms make sense. Same thing with Harley, not enough oil circulation from low rpms.The specs are at 3600, and if you need the cooling, like Tom and I do, you want to make sure that they are running wide open.
I have to rebuild a briggs engine a week, because they can't handle the heat. It always fails in the same spot, right behind the starter motor, so I am thinking that it is nothing more than a design error.
