Engine Engine swap

Will an engine from a Model# 917-270-670 fit into Model 917-272-680?

It should fit just fine.. What size engine is it, and what size engine will it be replacing?

Most engines will fit in any tractor - flatheads and OHV motors have different patterns tho.

From the factory most tractors come with a variety of different pre drilled bolt holes, due to different models using different motor combos.

Only things that might be different are engine widths ( opposed motors are wider then Vtwins) and wiring.

Id suggest using the original motor's engine pulley so it wont affect the drivetrain/mower deck speeds.
