Thank you for all the input.
Didn't know the front crank snout differences. To clarify really good compression was in the 120-130psi on each cylinder. I can hook up a battery and remeasure after the last 6-8 hours of run time, but given the prior owner and I always used some of the best oil and filters we could find (WIX and Full synthetic Mobil1) I suspect it will still be really good still.
As far as the crank snout> could it not be stepped up to 1 1/8 and 13/64 .203125" longer a deal breaker for a conversion? FYI It has a fully functional electronic clutch on the front.. had a nice pull and flip to engage PTO switch. Exhaust on it still has some original looking paint. May list it high on craigslist and ebay. If it doesn't sell then use in a yard truck with a jacobsen GT16 cast iron hydrostat rear with the eaton 11 I think it is. The K341 out of that is a backup for my cub cadets. Would likely just use the electronic clutch on that too if it was a different front crank snout too!? For 200-250 I may keep for some kind of project or repower.
