Update: I did take the compression with the decompression valve out and it was 125 this is like new. I also removed and cleaned the ignition coil. Buttom line no change. I am stumped. If money was no object I would buy a new carb. if that did not work then a new ignition coil if that did not work. I have a nice big hammer.

Ok I installed a Honda GX390 on a Murray 27" snow blower that was powered by a B&S 305cc. The swap turned out to be a horror story, 1st the shaft on the Honda was 1-inch also the engine at the shaft was 1-inch higher.  The base holes would  not line-up I needed  to push the engine back at least 1-inch because of the length of the shaft. The other real challange was to find  a pully that was 1.5-inch with a 1-inch center I was lucky I had a Lawnmower pully from a self propelled mower that I modified. Button line I spent at least 30 to 40 hours setting the sucker-up. All I can say it was an awsome SnowBlower when finised. Now that I know how I bet I could do the job in a few hours. If you are using  and engine that will bolt-up with the same size shaft it will be a plug and play less then 1-hour.  I will post a few pics of the onster powered snow Blower
