Are these Tecumseh Snowblower Engines interchangeable?
Are these two engines interchangable?
HSSK55-67501B and LH195SP-67514D. I have been looking all over the NET and haven't found anything.
Thanks

I haven't been able to find anything on these exact models either. However, I did find some Tecumseh info on similar models. Here's the main link: Small Engine Suppliers - Engine Specifications and Line Drawings for Tecumseh Small Engines
Take a look at this sub link: http://www.smallenginesuppliers.com/...e-drawings.pdf
From what I've been able to find, I would say there's a good chance that they are interchangeable.

You need to carefully compare the specs of any replacement engine you are considering.
I tried to re-power my 12 hp, 30" Craftsman sno-blower and failed to remove the pulley to check the shaft size and ordered an offshore replacement.
Standard shaft size for that HP engine is 1" but I found later that Craftsman used a 3/4" shaft 12 HP engine that is not a standard size.
Unfortunately the OEM replacement engine is close to the cost of a new snow-blower.
It looks like that company saved a pile of money by using the drive mechanism from the smaller snow-blowers on their larger models.
