Back in the early 1970's, Tecumseh sold short blocks for those 2 cycles and I can't remember exactly, but dealer price was less than $20.00 for a short block.

Before advertising agencies showed us how to mow in thongs, sandles & swim suits
Women of course mowed in high heels wearing a 2 piece swim suit or coctail dress with half their brests hanging out.
