I'm still wondering myself if the trouble I have with getting the centrifugal clutch of mine on the engine crank shaft turned around 180 degrees (the bell on the inside) can be solved short of modifying the crankshaft keyway slot nearest the crankcase cover oil seal.

The key way cut on the engine crankshaft closest to the crankcase cover oil seal is a rounded sloped cut. I have had to modify the key to get it almost fully installed. Its not quite there, just 1.3 mili-meters short of having the end of the engine crankshaft even with the centrifugal clutch pulley.

I have had the people at Max Torque the manufacturer of my centrifugal clutch mention that turning the clutch around is OK to do as the shoes on the one I have are symmetrical and grip either way. I want to have it install like this so I have the belt further away from the engine so I can fit the flat idler pulley I am to get in the mail tomorrow.

I'll be checking with Briggs and Stratton what they know of this too. Any help appreciated!
