Mike'sHorseBarn 3,072 #1 Posted March 1 It has a hole in the side of the block the size of a softball, but for $40 it's worth finding another engine. I belive it's a 74 model and I'm definitely going to save it. 5 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I heard you were the expert C-160 wrangler lol that's probably why i could never find an 8 speed. 33 minutes ago, ri702bill said: Balance Gears decided to leave home ??

I for one will be removing them from every Kohler single cylinder engine I ever work on. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill D 2,064 #9 Posted March 2 I've got an M16 I'd like to sell. It needs a rebuild, but it did run well, just burned oil. Let me know if you're interested. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike'sHorseBarn 3,072 #10 Posted 6 hours ago Took a road trip today for k341 for the C-160. Needs some valves and then I'll throw it in and see what happens! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
