16 HP vs. 14 HP Briggs

[650ARGOINIOWA]

14-16 hp

I think the cams are the same. But the goveners inside the motor are different. Some are tyflon gears and others are all metal and little heavier for the bigger horse power.

Along with changing the Carb, in the 14hp there are restrictors in the exhaust ports which can be removed with a pliers. I actually purchased a 14HP '94 Max II over the winter and was reading up on this just yesterday. There is a good post somewhere here on the site describing this simple conversion with pictures, but of course I cannot find it now.

Carb Model Numbers:
14 hp - 808728 - $116
16 hp - 844988 - $175
