What do you need a kit for? Bolt pattern on most, single or V twin is 10# bolt circle with deck punched to accept either. All interface elements including the drive pulley location and size are the same except for throttle/choke. On a single the carb is on the left side. On the V twin it's up front requiring a longer cable and ebay has them. If you replace with the same cylinder count, there isn't/no reason for, any kind of kit. (Opinion based on my changeout of 2 singles to V twins (18-20 hp, JD Husq.). |

Assuming the OP is still talking about his JD 212 in his other thread it has a horizontal shaft engine. |

I noticed on while searching on amazon that smallenginewarehouse also sells short blocks for some engines.
If you are handy, a short block is about half price of a complete engine.
So check out amazon, you may find what you need and may get free shipping with prime. |
