Good afternoon everyone. I have a Husqvarna riding mower with the Kohler Courage SV735 engine that blew the crankshaft and the engine block. Somehow, the stator magnets made contact with the stator itself, which caused the crankshaft to crack the block. I have it completely dissasemble, but the crankshaft and the block are not salvageable, so I am looking at buying a used block and crankshaft. Unfortunately, I can't find the exact block, but I can find the crankshaft. I have found an SV740 block from a Cub Cadet, and from my understanding, they are pretty much interchangeable based on parts numbers for the internals. All of the bolt patterns and torque settings appear to be identical across the SV series blocks. Can anyone shed some light on this and tell me if the SV740 block is compatible with everything from the SV735, including the oil pan? Thank you very much in advance for all advice.
P.S - I can add photos of parts, except the crankshaft and block, which I have already discarded because they are complete trash now. Also, the SV735 model number is MKC-5 32-560-08, whereas the SV740 is MKC-3 32-560-08, literally one number off, but I don't know how much that matters.
