Hi all, doing up an SB45 at the moment. Chassis is all in the process of being sorted, time for the engine.

Started to wonder why bother with my old original engine so had a look at what I could replace it with. On the B&S site the best option displacement and power wise seems to be the "550 Series" which has a layout similar to the Honda GX120/160 engines with the tank on top.

Further browsing online has discovered an(I guess) superceded model in the 91200 series that is 3.5hp and mimics the layout( tank behind and low down) of my original motor.

Anyone know where I might be able to get my hands on one of these? Or if B&S has a current model that has a similar look to mine? there seems to also be a 5hp version, that would be even better. smile

Pics of mine are in my post at this link:
