I do a lot of tilling. I have an older Barreto 1320 with a new Honda GX390 engine on it. It works great but the rest of the tiller is showing its age. I will need to change the tine motor soon at a cost of over $800. I am thinking to get a brand new Barreto, I will use it enough in the coming years to justify the cost. I am just debating weather I should get the 1320, with the honda 13 HP engine or the 1620 with the Briggs and Stratton 16 HP engine. I am pretty familiar with the Honda engines and they are very reliable, but I have never had a large Briggs and Stratton engine. I try to stay away from the cheap Briggs as much as I can. Does anyone have any thoughts on the B&S 16 HP engine or the amount of power increase between the two engines? Thanks
