I'm new to this club. I've always been a two-wheeled Gravely man but always wanted a Cub cadet. I finally found a nice 108 in my price range and I'm excited about getting it running and prettied up. Here's my question. The engine is froze up, but I'm a competent mechanic and it wouldn't be a problem rebuilding it. However I have a K301 12HP engine I salvaged from a Ford tractor and it's in excellent condition. The main difference is that it has a gear starter and flywheel alternator. It looks like it will fit okay but just wondered it anyone in the group has done this before. I know I'll need to replace the generator regulator with an AC rectifier/regulator. Any cautions, suggestions, exclamations? Thanks, Bear
