Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): 18.5 intek, horizontal shaft, pulley system

Question
I have a verticle shaft engine.. Can this be converted to a horizontal shaft application

Answer
Hello Randy:

>>No.
>>Other than Using a Belt and Pulley System to Change the Drive from Horizontial (vertical shaft engines) to Vertical (Horonzitial shaft engines), the Engine Itself cannot be Converted to Horonzontial Shaft Operation.
>>If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I Hope to be Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Be Safe and Happy. Thanks.

Good Luck
