Hey guys, hope everyone is doing well , my name is Carlos and this is my first post,i had a technical question and i was wanting some opinions,i have a older Briggs mower model year 2006, your typical little Briggs block (no governor) , this mower had a rough life before i got it and the motor could be rebuilt but thats something ill mess with later, to put it simply this is what i wanna do,i have another block ,brand new short block that i want to use as a motor for this mower, BUT it has a governor,can i remove the governor stem and just braze the hole shut?? i work in a machine shop and have acces to everything in the world i need when it comes to tools including a first class welder that would be happy to close that hole for me,anybody see anything wrong with this plan? before i go digging out model numbers and codes, the blocks are identical, same crank, same valve size same everything, just one has a governor hole and the other doesn't, thank you for any input!!
