The list is LONG - almost any engine designed for mower applications will fit.

A Tecumseh BVSxxx, Vantage, Prisma, or Synergy of similar power to the original engine,

Or Briggs & Stratton Classic or Quantum (both available in a number of versions).

There are 2 crank lengths in use on rotary mowers - you will have to check your existing engine to ensure you get the right version of any of the models mentioned.

Don't get a Honda engine - they have different dimentions!
