Kawasaki to ship short block engine assemblies in December

Beginning this month, the Engines and Power Products Division of Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A., will be making short block engine assemblies available for its popular FS and FX engine series units. The introduction of these will allow lawncare professionals to easily extend the operational life of mowers that are key to business profitability.

The new short block engine assemblies, carrying an MSRP ranging from $930 to $1,342, will be available at authorized Kawasaki Engine dealers throughout the country.

According to the company, gasket kits are included with the sale of every short block assembly, and assemblies are shipped with an attached oil filter.

“This represents a huge step forward for professionals that depend on their Kawasaki-powered equipment,” said Kawasaki Executive Director Rodger Howe. “Pros count on their mowers for continued in-field performance, and we’re providing genuine Kawasaki quality and reliability while reducing the time required for an engine rebuild.”
