Just as cheap to buy a new mower these days than retrofit

This outfit has good priced mower engines, with free shipping on most models. The 3.5hp Briggs one is only $200, PLUS shipping.
Do yourself a favour - upgrade to Quantum 650 and rip into it! Several traders sell them.

Our latest Masport has 148cc displacement, seems crazy that this engine in a lawn mower is nearly three times the capacity of a 50cc moped/scooter!
On the up side it has grunt for Africa

That $200 Briggs & Stratton in my earlier post is 148cc, and is a widely used engine on budget priced mowers. It's fine for an average mowing situation. The 650 Briggs is 190cc, and will certainly be powerful enough for most situations.
Unless you're doing something out of the ordinary, mowing-wise, you don't really need to spend time researching, especially price-wise.

If you can, stick with the Briggs motor. They are a real success story, sell well over 150 million world wide.
