Kohler 14hp single
Has anyone swapped in one of these?
Looking to repower my old marathon... Got a lead on a smokin' deal on a new one and was curious if anyone had experience with them.. Thanks! |

Re: Kohler 14hp single
It looks very similar to a Honda GX390 or clone. If it's a 1" crank and electric start it should work very well! Oh and it has to be CCW rotation.

Well it's on the way. $200! Brand new w/10 amp charging system
Now for a clutch. Probably gonna get a new comet 780...are there different variations? Is the 302405A the right one? |

Re: Kohler 14hp single
Not sure on the 780, some say it's the same no matter where you get it from, some say it's tuned for big blocks. I got mine from CPP, very happy with their service, very quick. Also Vegas Carts has them.

Re: Kohler 14hp single
Not sure if this would be a 'Big Block', or a 'Clone'... It's not really a clone since it's actually a Kohler...
It's 429cc, so I'll just call it the 429 |
