Very good thread on rebuilding your k161.  I appreciate it alot with all the extra tips as well.. This gives me some willingness to try my hand at it for the first time on my k161. Thank you, much appreciated!

Also, if possible how about some pics of that small engine stand you built as I'd like to fabricate one myself if you don't mind.

Thanks again

New to this site. New to wheelhorse's. Enjoyed reading all of this info. I myself have a C-165 that needs the old 16hp rebuilt if possible. Ring broke and it has several scratches on cylinder wall. Hope it can be bored or resleeved.

I'm pretty sure @prondzy  would have no problem sharing pics of his stand with you and others!  He still visits the forum regularly.

The block bolts up using the starter bolt holes. It allows me to spin the block around.
