Briggs vertical to horizontal conversion
« on: October 04, 2017, 06:41:04 pm »
Has anybody ever done this. A post on facebook showed up with an fxs with a horizontal 31ci, and I was wondering if anybody has done this, and how it worked?

Would I have issues because I have a pressure lube?

Unknown.  If the oil pick up is in oil it should work.

Non pressure lube all you need is the slinger in oil and it will be fine.

Ok. I saw that and I figured less power loss, and cheaper than an EC gearbox, so might have to consider that when I bump up to fxs.
