Movin' things around in the garage and trying to get things cleaned up, I decided to install the Kohler V-twin in the 716H just to get it off the bench. It has to be raised an inch or so in order for the driveshaft to align up, but this looks like its doable.

That's interesting. When I put the command in my Sovereign the crankshaft centerline was perfect without spacers. ------------- 10 various B-series garden tractors, AC Homesteader8, 416 hydro,710 gt, 914, 916H, 917H, 920D, and many misc attachments |
