mag 18
Hey Cubguy, I'm getting ready to attempt this in a 582 in about a week, waiting on a clutch hub. I think a hydro might be easier. The mag 18 i have is out of an Ayp (sears). The front pto is spaced out and the crankshaft is 3/4" longer than the briggs. Might work or not, might have to try and get the pto back 3/4"and use a spacer on the front. Might try and get the pto off the briggs to work as there both 1" shafts. I'm gonna need manifolds and a muffler. I've got a 16 single i could try but i like a smooth twin for a mower. i'll put a slow 2nd gear in the trans if i keep it for my mower, i like that speed.
Good luck Mike
