Hey Lawnboy 77,
What are you holding on the shaft with that piece of string tied on there?

About the availability of the blade mounts: I'm optimistic that somebody will keep selling them since there is a steady demand and (I'm pretty sure) there's no remaining patent restriction to worry about. 
Those adapters are still being made by Toro and aftermarket vendors. Here is one of many on ebay for around 4 bucks. I don't think we have to worry about these not being available for quite awhile.

I probably will modify that pitman arm puller to specialize in pulling these adapters off since I don't seem to be working on automobiles anymore.

That particular engine was off a 10400 that I bought my dad years ago. During his later years his vision was not the best so he probably just ran over a pack of dental floss...at least that's what it looked like LOL. He also straight gassed the engine a time or two judging from the scoring on the piston. That's okay though, he fought the good fight, mowed his own lawn way up into his mid 80's while taking care of my mother. I hope I'm lucky enough to be able to take care of my wife and mow my own lawn after that many trips around the sun.
