Mend Craftsman LT1000 Engine Fine

Craftsman LT 1000 19.5 hp - Blew the Engine?

The engine of my LT1000 was running fine till I heard a metalic noise in the engine and saw smoke. When I looked over I found a hole in the engine !
What will be the best exact or closest match to replace the engine. The old / broken one is a Briggs and Stratton Model 461707 Type 0145 E3 - 19.5 hp twin

The Kohler will not fit (easily). It will bolt on, but the pulleys may have the wrong key size, and the wiring will be wrong.

An alternative B&S will be OK (subject to correct crank options), but you will need to get the correct alternator option for the tractor in question.

I Want it; no hey listen the best match for your engine size is the b/s 18hp or the kohler 20hp. or you could order a short block from b/s and just put ypur parts on it. that way you will have the right engine for your machine. hope this is of help to you.

There is a direct replacement available, but at retail prices you will be better off buying a new tractor.

Best bet is ebay - either for a replacement engine, or an entire tractor for parts.
