    I am not familiar with that engine but what you could do is give a bit more info. I am going to assume that the engine is not there. If the engine is there then give us the details and someone on this site will be able to help out. Maybe someone has already done this swap. There should be a brass tag on the dash with a model number. If we knew that then we might be able to determine what year and model it is. From there a person could determine what engine was in it originally. If we knew what engine then you could do a research on that engine and get the specs. Enough searching will give you mount bolt pattern, pto shaft dimensions, etc, etc. I have heard of some pretty neat engine swaps. If you are handy with tools and resourceful, it PROBABLY would fit. IF it would fit, then search the internet for the appropriate clutch. Do a search for an argo dealer in S.A. Be patient for answers as sometimes it takes the right person to stumble onto your questions.

    Joe Camel never does that.
