I wish I could plop an engine right in there. Better yet I wish I had a few running spares on the shelf lol. But I unfortunately only have that one 12hp kohler sitting in my cub. My other Kohler's a 17 twin. Imagine that in there. Off topic but yesterday while driving I saw a gray painted cub and it had a twin cylinder engine in it. Poor thing just sits there.
