Default 582 replace engine

Hi guys my uncle has a 582 and the Briggs in it just broke a rod and he is looking for a replacement engine, he wants to buy a new one that will bolt in directly. Right now he has a v twin vanguard quoted but I am wondering if there are any other direct bolt in alternatives from kohler I know the k series will bolt in, but will a magnum or a good twin that is available for purchase bolt in? He's not sure if the vangaurd will work so he's looking into it

The K series isn't a direct bolt in. The KT would be. Vanguard should be fine with minor modification. If it were mine, I'd look for a magnum engine. 18hp twin cylinder or bigger.

Sorry thought the k series was in the 1282 , is there a higher hp magnum ohv? Like 16 hp or are all magnums flathead I could swear I saw a magnum or k series ohv 18 hp in a list the other day.

Are magnums still available new?
What mods needed for the vanguard, motor mounts or driveshaft mounts?

Thumbs down

Magnums are all flat-heads. Commands are OHV. Kohler makes engines up to 24hp, I think is the largest. Yes the 1282 had a K series in it but you will need a different engine cradle.

Ok, well yeah..... But, like the video says, RARE! Besides, by looks of the height, I'm not sure it would fit. Easier to stick with something closer to stock. You could find another Briggs to put in it, or a KT17 (Series I or II), M18, M20, Vanguard, CH18, CH20 to name some easy ones. Or get the other engine cradle and do anything in the K series. But, for the life of me I don't know why you would want to put anything smaller than a 16hp in it. (Not saying you DO want to.)

Cool that is a big enough list to show him I'll have to look and see if any are cheaper than the vanguard

As far as I know, not too many on that list can be purchased new. (Not "reasonably" anyway.) Last time a priced a new Magnum 18, they were like $2200. (Maybe I was looking in the wrong places too.) The cheapest option is probably the Vanguard. Unless you can find a good used! They are out there, just takes time to find them.

Ya I thought the Briggs would be chespest and I already tried to convince him that a whole tractor would be the best for the money, local ih dealer has one of the white ones of that body style for sale $1500 the vangaurd is $1050 or theres a 1282 on clisy for 1100$ and I'm sure if he'd wait a little a cheaper red one would show on clisy or a local auction.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
