Engine Complete
Finished the engine assembly today. I know, I know...the muffler isn't stock. It will have to do until I can re-build an original I have.
Installing the anti-rattle clips on the PTO clutch was alot of fun...grrrrrr!

Thanks
Hey, thanks everyone - appreciate the nice words.
I wanted to mention that I had to use a tank sealer on the gas tank. Just to much rust inside for my taste. I used a couple of products that did a very nice job on the clean up and sealing. I'm probably about an hour away from start up. I'm missing a small piece that clamps my choke cable down - need to finish attaching the wiring harness to the engine. I'm using a diesel engine oil for break-in then I'll switch to synthetic. Hope I got my wiring all correct - need to jump those terminals on the voltage regulator also. Well, almost there...

Throttle and Choke Linkage
Someone asked me how I remembered how to run the throttle and choke linkage after removing it so long ago.
Truth is, this 149 didn't have a carb when I rescued it. - fact is, half the linkage pieces were missing also! So, just how then did I know how to run the linkage? A manual? good answer, but no. The manual I have has pictures to dark to show the linkage hook up. Ok, so just how then did I know? Well, I did what any good cubber would do... I bought another 149 and took pictures of it! Thats my story and I'm sticking to it!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
