Re: from flathead to ohv
We need a little more info to help you. By ohv do you mean some other type of engine or the FE290 that came in newer CC's? If it's the FE290 the carbs mount in a different position and the governor setup is completely different. Are you trying to keep a governor? Side issue: If it's the FE290 what year is the engine (CW or CCW rotation)?

Re: from flathead to ohv
Flathead means probably around 1990 or older.
They have different setups |

Re: from flathead to ohv
yes it's a fe290 or 350 style engine I'm working with. I'm having throttle cable position problems also when I ground engine to frame it doesn't run but will run without ground but heated original s shaped cable red hot!
