I was hoping somebody had the answer. Maybe they will yet. I could yank the bolt out of mine, but I don't have a metric thread gauge. Sorry.

Hey FLkid92, what country are you in? The reason I ask is the 1" pto versions sold here in the states would have 3/8 fine but the GX340's (with a 25mm. pto) intended to be sold in some other countries would be tapped to M8 x 1.25.

I think Honda made the motors intended for USA markets with non-metric pto/bolt hole sizing so customers could simply remove their wore out Briggs from a cement mixer, lawn mower or whatever and bolt the Honda right in its place with the same hardware. I'd imagine Briggs exports engines to some other countries with all metric pto's for the same reason.
