That will be a big problem, and well as the wiring harness will be different.

not worried about the wiring, the parts manual shows the same clutch and drive pulley for both engines, the kawi pulled a rocker stud and they kept running it on one cyl and wiped the rings and overheated it I guess smokes and burn oil like mad
If the PTO mounts at the end of the shaft that 1" might be an issue.not worried about the wiring, the parts manual shows the same clutch and drive pulley for both engines, the kawi pulled a rocker stud and they kept running it on one cyl and wiped the rings and overheated it I guess smokes and burn oil like mad
I would pull the heads and check the cylinder that had the problem.
I would think that a rebuild, if possible is a better and cheaper solution unless the cylinder has excessive damage and can't be honed.
Is it possible to space the engine back an inch to over come the 1 inch too long shaft?

Absolutely yes.
I had no problem finding replacement engines for a 2001 Snapper rider.
Find the tag on the engine that contains the exact model number of that engine. Then search Google:
replacement engine for <model number brand name of engine>
The mid-west suppliers had the best prices. May have been Tulsa engines.
yea but they go for $1500 plus
