I know you showed the engine but I could tell by the way this was cranking and how it sounded that it was an opposed twin cylinder

@schindlerman96, yup and did you know if you run straight pipes on this, it sounds like a V8.... pretty awesome

@SpiritsoftheWolf no I did not have you did that before. I have a 1997 Craftsman LT-1000 with a 19 HP Horizontally Opposed Twin Cylinder Briggs and Stratton I/C Platinum Turbo Cool

@schindlerman96, yup i did that to my older model MTD tractor,,, muffler was rusted out bad, so i ran a couple of pipes straight upward, and sounded like a V8 when running at idle
