Swapping a Briggs in to replace my blown Kohler Courage 18. First hurdle is exhaust. This is in a Cub Cadet XT1. The kohler muffler is mounted under a crossmember ahead of the front axle with an open hole on the side where the exhaust comes out of the engine. The Briggs has the pipe come out of the head and curve around and welded to the muffler opposite side of engine. In order to use the existing exhaust on the Brigggs I'd have to cut out the front cross member/bracket, which I'd rather not do partially because it's the mounting point for the front bumper/grill muffler shroud, and also more labor intensive. I read somewhere that MTD makes an exhaust pipe for adapting to the original setup. Anybody have a source for such parts? Also I've seen a premade adapter to connect Kohler wiring to Briggs as well, but again don't know where to purchase. My next step is to try to contact Briggs. Thanks for any advice.
