Nic,

A picture is worth 1,000 words in this case.

I didn't understand your dilemma until I checked Parts Lookup, where no fewer than fourteen (14) different models with 4-digit numbers are listed; each configured with two cylinder motors (not counting serial number variants, or ones that I may have overlooked, see listing below).

If the motor has not been changed, most of them were configured with Kohler motors, either a KT17 or an M18; models 1641, 1863, and 1864 models all used a motor with a V-Twin configuration.

This leaves only Model 1604 which came with a 16 HP Briggs & Statton (like a 582) as a possible candidate. Does your motor look like the B&S depicted below?

The one I own looks like this:

(Note the flywheel is not installed [ATTACH=full]18147[/ATTACH], by the way, the parts of this motor still usable are for sale.)

Of the Models I checked those with Kohler Opposed Twin included:
Model 1535
Model 1541
Model 1710
Model 1711
Model 1806
Model 1810
Model 1811
Model 1860
Model 1861
Model 1862

Other engine/model combinations mentioned above.

Hope this helps. [ATTACH=full]18148[/ATTACH]

Edit: Oops, I forgot you don't have the motor. Oh well.
