These all belong to me. Useing my photos I would like to atleast very mentioned. Unfortunately I wont have a engine this year with one on it, been to busy and sold all my good engines. I have seen them used on Reo, Tecumseh, and Briggs also. 

@tractornut86 Actually please accept my apology. I forgot exactly who it was that had them or I would have mentioned it. I had also deleted all emails so I had no way of t

 really researching it back. I did say it was from one of the members here that had them for sale.

Here is my 401 with same set up that I had sold a few years back.

this is the one that looks familiar to me as the type of engine and starter that was on my grandfather's little snow blower many moons ago.

Please except my apology. I did not remember who exactly the member was. I had deleted all emails and had no way of referring back to it. I am not even sure if it was though here that I found it but perhaps through FB marketplace link provided by someone else. I did state it was a member here.

 

seems like I duplicated this. Could someone remove duplicate?

I was more curious than anything. I bought my 1960  400 a front sickle. Saved it from becoming yard art. The young couple had some absolutely beautiful pieces throughout. Someone had put a little briggs on it. I have since purchased the K91 with starter/genni mounted and pull start components in a box. I'm good either way but it looks like i will be extremly tight with the genni set up. That little 110 volt system sitting out front leaves some room so I think I'll keep that location in mind when I start this project.

I have also seen the starter generator mounted in front of engine. It does create less issues that way. You will just have to get one that turns in the opposite direction from the regular one.

As long as it is connected to the flywheel side it will be clockwise.

I'm curious to what the starter motor actually draws for amperage as that isn't a 20 amp plug on the end of the pigtail.  

[Racinbob 11,991]

Actually it's only a 15 amp configuration. They indicate '20 A" on the tag though. I couldn't find the actual amp draw but at 120 volts I don't think it's all that much.

I stand corrected. Yes it should be the same. Only need the reversed one if you attach it to PTO side..
