[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 76795, member: 82"] The only thing that you would really need to look into is output shaft height from the base of the engine. You can go up easier than making it go down. If you know what the HP rating was for the old engine, match it or go a little higher. I wouln't worry about going the same vintage, most engines have gotten better over time :) The extra weight could be an advantage and disadvantage. Without a load on, it may be more tippy, with a load it would be more stable. So you need to find a middle ground really. Most engines rotate the same direction, but it is a remote possibility. Ensure the new one will rotate the same direction. [/QUOTE]
