Hi there. I was at the dump last summer and found myself a 70's Gilson front tine tiller. This thing is pretty beat up but it had a nice solid what appears to be a mid to late 70's 5hp Briggs Flatty. Picket it up for $18 in scrap weight.
The engine block and tank have that light blue metalic paint and the engine shroud is gold. Because the recoil housing is from a different engine I really cannot correctly idendify the engine block. I understand the how to break down the Model, Type and Code.
My question is, I'd like to do a Tecumseh carb swap and will the B&S pn#691922 intake work on this era of Briggs engine block?
I'll get some pics posted later tonight of this engine.
Thanks.
