Finished the rebuild and repower last week. I found a flywheel screen that bolts right on the flywheel for the Briggs on ebay,that seems to be the correct way as suggested. I did buy the flywheel adapter for the Briggs as advised. Had to extend the driveshaft about 2-1/2" and installed new rag joints brucer95 made for me. To shut the engine off I got advice on how to wire up a relay on this forum and that works perfect. I found some polished, stainless 1" tubing for the exhaust and ran that out the grille. brucer95 also cut out a new underbelly debris screen that worked out just right. Put some Carlisle aggs on with fluid and also made a front weight bracket for plowing beens the tractor lost so much weight with the V-Twin. Made some brushed illuminum step plates from 1/8" stock. Only one thing I don't know how to do is test the charging system. Can someone tell me how to test to see if it is charging or not. I hooked up the short red wire from the rectifire to the original wire that went to the Kohler. I got alot of help from members of this forum. A big THANKS to all who helped with this project.

Weight we used on the 560s when we plowed with them back in the day. Not bolted down yet. Bolts long enough for two weights, don't think I'll need it.
