I'm finally getting around to posting my 1872 repower. Things are far from over but today was the first day I was able to drive it around on the new engine. But lets start from the beginning:
A couple years ago I got the Cub bug when I acquired a IH 782. I loved that thing and had no intention of selling it until I happened upon 1872. The 1872 had a blown motor I initially wanted it for the power steering, dual brakes, and dual hydraulics to put on the 782. I wasn't too fond of the KT17 series I that was in my 782 and realized that what I really wanted to do was repower the 1872 with a modern engine, preferably EFI.
I picked up the 1872 and sold my 782 to a gentleman that was retiring and looking for a tractor to restore and play with, so I new it was going to a good home which made it easier.
On to the good stuff:Started tearing her down.
