Hello everyone!
Can anyone recommend a replacement engine (different manufacturer) for a Kawasaki fh601v gs09 off of a Wright stander?
Same mounting bolt pattern, shaft size., etc.

Thanks!

Most likely you will the current muffler setup will only work the FH series so that will be a big expense to consider if the you can find commercially made muffler or if you have to have a custom one made if you go with a different OEM engine.

And here the crankshaft specs for the FH601V-GS09 that you must match up too.

And here is the mounting info.

Curious about electrical as well

Many thanks!

Electrics are easy but the plugs will not match
Only really 2 systems
1) magneto through to key switch
2) magneto through a module or relay
They are basically all the same
Engine will have wire to the magnetos coils , goes to ground to stop engine
wire to carb solenoid , goes battery voltage to run
Wire to starter motor solenoid
Wire from rectifier to battery to recharge ( may go through switch or hot solenoid wire )
2 wires to the electric clutch, these are usually plug & play .
