Default Cub Cadet 1250 clean up.

This is my first Antique lawn tractor. A buddy of mine gave it to me about 3 weeks ago. I had to get a carb, new points, coil and a gas tank. Got it running but it was knocking. I took the engine apart and found it had a .030 over piston but the bore looked as if was .060 over that's how loose the piston was in the cylinder. I was lucky enough to get another block that was standard and a new piston and rod. I've never had a Kohler engine before and it runs like a dream now. Here are some pics of the start of my clean up.
