Bruce or Joe can advise on which engines will fit. I wouldn't rush into buying a new engine, since it will cost more than a discounted new mower and will almost inevitably be one of the Chinese engines - which do not yet seem to be achieving the traditional quality of American or Japanese engines. Joe's advice to take a look at ebay, and buy an original full-crank Victa engine for a couple of bucks, seems like a better idea.
