I'm hoping to replace the 8-tooth sprocket (#786047) off of an old, almost-junked Craftsman 502.254172 riding mower with a 10- or 12-tooth sprocket. See part 19 at http://www.odref.com/peerless/700-SERIES/700-700-073.PDF . Note, the bore is geared, not smooth or slotted.

Any suggestions?

perfect... thanks!

can i be reasonable assured that if i find one of those sprockets on-line that it will 1) have a geared core rather than smooth or slotted, and 2) that it will fit using the existing (original) chain?

Those are Tecumesh #'s for their model 700 series tranny. I can't find a picture of any of those mumbers to verify the bore design, however the Peerless book shows all 700's, 500's, 400's and 350's as having a splined output shaft.
