Rick,
Take some good advice and get the Rover as the engine will outlast the Victa two stroke twice over. You see the victa is only a half crank motor and all the stress is on the blade side. The victa needs to be run at full RPM's to get any real life out of it whereas the Rover engine is a full crank like the old Victa's that lasted twenty plus years.

Regards,
Bruce
