huey 7 #1 Posted April 29, 2020 Just curious has anyone ever installed a 20+HP Vanguard in a c-120 just wondering what modification is needed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoeM 7,874 #2 Posted April 29, 2020 Not a 20 but a 16. Looking at the 20 it is about an 1/2" taller. One issue was the muffler. Also, I had to install raised mounts 1" to get the center of the shaft lined up with the drive belt track / geometry. The pic is an older vanguard with tall/round air filter but the newer ones are flat and may fit under the hood but might be tight.? Need a PTO that fits a 1" shaft, or adapter. The 16 I installed is on my sons machine and it has plenty of juice. Runs the 48" deck with ease. Quiet too. just some fuel for thought. 6 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lee1977 6,659 #4 Posted May 10, 2020 (edited) I have a 18 HP Vanguard in a C-120. There isn't any room to spare, but it will go in there. To get the PTO in the same place you need to raise the engine 3/4". Edited May 10, 2020 by Lee1977 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
