Well, I think I have my mind made up...
Going with the Champion 46515 unit from a local LOWES for $329.
-adding electric start, off ebay for $100.
-Converting to propane to operate both off the BBQ grill sized tanks and my main LPG tank already on the Motorhome.
*I would use gasoline if there wasn't so many hazards with it. The location of where the generator will be doesn't allow for alot options.
**I'll be modifying the existing cabinet floor and following along the lines of what the professor did for sound dampening and cooling...but adjusted to suit my application.

***I am going to get crafty with the welder and plasma cutter to open the existing generator cabinet up more, and go bananas with creativity.
^^^Just need to pick a good deal/good price/fast charger to recharge my battery bank I want to utilize...(still stuck here)..planning on 4- group 24 or group 27 batteries....walmart specials.
