I have an old (built in 83) ZTR with a Briggs twin engine - 18 horse. I can't remember how many cc's. I want to say 594. I've also got a mower with the Kohler Courage 20 horse. I have explained (the the better half) until I am blue in the face how the 18 has more torque and guts and thus gets by with less HP. It's a five foot cut. They probably would put a 35 horse on it today! It drinks enough fuel to be a 35 horse, that's for sure.
So if that old engine was made today what do you think it's rated HP would be?
