Any Briggs or Tecumseh engine from 5HP up will bolt straight on - however, engines are available with varous diameter and length cranks. Just make sure the engine you get has the same size and length crank (measured from the mounting flange, NOT from the bottom of the sump casting). Most engines of this size that were intended for mower use will be OK - you will only have a problem if you get an engine intended for some other application (rotovator.tiller or whatever).
