Default driven clutch and belt strength?

Has any one had trouble running the stock 1" belt, and driven clutch with the added power of a 20hp big block? I have a 95 cc and I'm swapping in a 20hp Honda gx, with the comet 780.

I think you will find the 20hp will destroy the 1" belt the first time you put it under heavy load.

I have decided to order the 23hp big block from ccp. I work out of town and i want to swap in a big block over the Christmas holidays, but i don't want to spend all of my time off work, swapping in a big block. So i shouldn't have any issues, and it should swap in with out taking up all my time off.

I already ordered it lol. But i can order it and install it later. How much extra power does it add?
