Zenith model 28 questions

Recommended Posts

Pullstart

I have this K662 Kohler twin.  It is mostly propane.  But many things are missing.  I have found that a Model 28 Zenith carburetor might have been stock on that engine.  Does that mean 28 mm Venturi?  Could I essentially tune any 28mm carb to work?  I was thinking maybe a horizontal flow carb like most of what we’re used to, then a 90 degree intake tube.  I could fashion it in any reasonable direction for a filter.

The 662 is 1101 cc.  Possibly I should search for a comparable size engine to see what reasonable carb I could find?  Today a KT735 (735 cc) makes 24 hp, like this K662 did.

I have some Mikuni carbs from 16hp vanguards if you would be interested. They are vertical venturi. Not sure on the bore, I can look tonight.

Get out your welder and some piping and make up a triple intake. Put three, 8 horse carburetors on there and call it fantastic.

If you use the Harley carb, try to find one that hasn't fallen off the bike at highway speed.
