you can do this real easy,,the governor type on this engine is a rod type that also works by air reducing the ,,rpm,s,,if you take the spring off from it,,and run a rod strait to the carb,it will by pass the governor,,but you wont have any thing there to reduce the ,,rpm, of the engine,,so it may throw a rod,,or bend a valve,,they weren;t meant to run at high rpm,s unless there modified to do so,,they do make a kit that you can use to build the engine with that will make it hold up better,,your probably going to blow it up,,if you do this to it,,good luck though,,it can be kind of dangerous.

The smaller simple engines like the classics have windvane governors, quantum on up should have internal ones. What your asking for is trouble, its not the flywheel.... the flywheel should be steel and take the force (if it was aluminum, it'd rip right through that shroud when it broke) the connecting rod, briggs makes a pretty strong connecting rod, stronger then others stockers BUT running it full out will stress it and sooner or later it'll break and throw and grenade the engine.... the block itself is good and thick (briggs are thicker then most others) and should contain it, or atleast most of it.
Also you'll be floating the valves bad (engines running so fast, the valve springs can't close em fast enough and the stay open) cuts engine performance

I once saw a safety film on the small b&s engines running. I suggest you use a different engine for a hot rod. A slow motion look at a running b&s is scarey -- the engine block seems to be breathing and this is in normal operation (with the governor operating).

The best thing for you to do is to leave the governor alone........period. you are only asking for trouble and risking injury to yourself and others if you do remove it. If that engine revs to high, it is only gonna come apart, and I would not want to be anywhere close when it does. If ur trying to make a hot rod engine out of it, you would be better boring out the cylinder and getting a oversize piston kit, and have the head shaved, yes, you can do that. also you will need to adjust the fuel rate.
remember............a governor was put on it for a reason, to keep it from reving to much.

Its pretty simple, all you should have to do is disconnect the air fin spring, should be a 1 or 2 inch , goes inside to the little metal piece pushed by the air flo from the fly wheel cooling fins, after that attach sometype of throttle control cable of adjustment device to the hi lo speed mech.

Most lawnmower gov are a simple mechanical device that is operated by a vane that is 'blown' by the blades on the flywheel. Just remove outer cowling and take it off. NOTE: you will need to replace your carb. with a go-cart unit in order to throttle your mower.
