I put a Command in my 1541 and faced the same issues. Cub does make a newer design for the muffler, but it costs over $200. The top heat shield is no longer available. One of the salvage people should have one. The drive shaft from the 1863/4 has different splines on the ends. They are a smaller diameter, so you need different parts for the universal joints. RF Houtz had the drive shaft stuff six months ago. Fair prices and good people to work with. You also need the spacers that go between the engine and the mounting plate. They are the same height as the Magnum spacers. They are larger in diameter. I am not sure if that matters.
Good luck. John
