Kohler Dilemma

[Butch1957]

I have an Old ForkLift that has a Kohler Twin Cylinder Horizontal Shaft Engine. Possibly a 20hp or so: My Dilemma is that their are not specs. on the housing and no where to be found OTHER than 11790 stamped on the side of the block. I would like to put a new Kohler engine but I do not have any model number to identify this engine.

It has a 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 shaft sticking out of it where a 3-band pulley hooks up to it.

Can someone help me out with a Model Number / Replacement Engine # ?

Greatly Appreciated !

Thanks.

Is this engine a V Twin or Horizontally opposed?

This is a V Twin Kohler Engine

P.T.O. side ( opposite of the flywheel side ) has three band/belt pully drive that attaches to a shaft that sticks out approx. 4inches.

Old engine but time to replace.

Any help will greatly be appreciated !

Should be a Model CH20. Spec# would tell you all the variations I.E. crankshaft dimensions, throttle set up, type of air cleaner etc, etc. Also a Model CH22 would be 22HP and a CH25 would be 25HP.
