Engine swap 129
 
I broke the rod this winter plowing snow on my original k301A. It was my grandfather's tractor that he gave me some time ago and has been a workhorse for me. Iv'e been fighting with the fly wheel. It won't come off with a wheel puller and hammer to the shaft. No one around here works on old IH cubs.

Meanwhile, spring is here and I need to get the tractor going again. So I purchased a k341A from Ray W. in PA. It has good compression. It is not a starter generator set up like the k301A was. So, trying to figure out the wiring. Anyone have any experience on transplanting the k341A into a wide frame cub with out a starter generator? No more use for an F wire? Voltage regulator bypassed? Lastly, does the PTO from the k301A work on a k341A or should I purchase another and install? I was under the understanding that the 341 would bolt right in, but wiring differences are throwing me for a loop.

The pictures and videos on youtube for this kind of thing are scarce. Thanks in advance for the help.

Assuming the K341 came from a Quietline,
have you looked at and compared the two wire diagrams in the Tech section?

Right off the get-go ignition switches are different, then you can rewire from there.

Shrouding and muffler are different on Quietlines, what's you plan there?
That might interfere with manual PTO, but I'm guessing.
