Farm auctions are , or used to be, a good source for old Briggs engines. 
Probably half the grain augers out there used to be powered by a Briggs 12 
or 16 hp engine. Smaller ones too. I think I still have a black one, (9or 10 
hp?) Can't recall the model numbers. Carb kits were not a problem to buy 
last time I tried but that is a few years ago. A lot of these engines have 
been retired as grain augers grow bigger and require newer, bigger engines 
for power.
