I am needing a head gasket I think (haven't pulled it apart yet, may be a cracked head), but I am not having any luck finding one. If anyone knows where I can obtain one, please let me know. My only other option is to repower it with another engine. I have searched the web and it looks like a Kubota, Wisconsin, and a few others may work with modifications. I was wanting to know if anyone else on here has repowered the CL45 and how difficult it was, the engine you used, and how successful it was. Is there anything that would do different? Or, if you have any ideas on where I can get parts for the Shibaura LEP-8543a, which is the engine I currently have, which is 42 hp, I think. Any information is greatly appreciated. Thanks, D.L.</p></blockquote><p></p>
