anyone know anything about a briggs diamond series motor? I have found a good used one but have never heard of the diamond series. from what i gatherthey are an i.c. motor with full pressure lube and have a spin on filter. it is a vertical shaft. didn't know if anyone has one or if they are good. the one i'm looking at is a 16 horse twin, vertical shaft. thanks a lot..

Its just the way they were honed for final finish to improve oil and compression mostly marketing spin they are still general purpose engines with aluminum Standard Intek and Power built have an aluminum cylinder wall also Diamond is just the hone process given to these blocks-nothing real special. 16/18/19/20 are popular sizes of the red tinned horizontal twin engines
