I am about to pull the trigger and purchase a new Briggs and Stratton engine for my Rover 45.
The B and S 550 series 3.5HP is a direct swap (correct me please if i'm wrong)
My question is, which shaft size do i choose - 3/4 or 5/8
Given I am willing to recondition my clutch etc...my decision is guided by availability of clutch parts, as I believe the engine side clutch half is what comes in either size?
Looking around the internet the 5/8 clutch half seems to be a lot harder to obtain then the 3/4 version ?
any input in terms of size recommended is appreciated
Alex
