    Cad,

    Does any one know where I can get a Solid Works model of a Briggs & Stratton
    twin cylinder 16hp-24hp engine

  2. I am sorry to say that the chances of you finding a model of the engine
    that you want from someone willing to share it with you are very
    remote. Considering what the final cost of the model would be, to the
    Client, it would more than likely be labeled "Proprietary" and
    automatically come with an unwillingness to share.
    I traveled this very road, not all that long ago, looking for a 12 HP
    Tecumseh Vertical Shaft Engine. I found the best that I could do was
    to purchase a Replacement Parts List, from a Tecumseh Distributor for
    around $20.00, and it came with some pretty clean line drawings, of
    isometric exploded views of all the parts and their location. I then
    found the engine on a Riding Lawnmower-Tractor combo, at a Home Depot,
    or Lowes, I forget which, and took digital photos of it from any view
    that I could and I took an accurate measurement of the gas tank. With
    simple mathematics I was able to calculate the size of all the parts
    and I believe the model ended up pretty accurately drawn to scale.

    Good luck,
