I am needing to repower a 1979 Masport Home Gardener tiller that was fitted with an L head Briggs & Stratton 3.5 HP engine.

There does not seem to be sufficient room between the wheels for an OHV engine to fit.

When Masport updated the tiller with a 3.5 HP OHV Briggs & Stratton engine, was the frame altered to enable this OHV engine to fit?

Does someone have a picture of the frame of the updated Masport tiller with an OHV B&S engine?

Has someone repowered an older model Masport tiller with an OHV engine?
