169 in need of an engine transplant
I bought a 169 over a year ago and have not had much luck getting a 16 hp kohler for it. There is a 316 JD for sale that is very close by and I was wondering how different the engines were between the two tractors. I would like to put my 169 back as close to original as possible and wondered how this would work. I have also been looking at wheel horse 16 hp kohlers and was wondering about them, as well. Any advice from 169 owners or people in the know would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Cub Cadet 123

To add to that I think the flywheels are different. I'm pretty sure the john deere and Wheel Horse one's are electric start. I know the arrangement of the coil, condesor, and the wiring the Wheel Horse is in different places. I don't know about the john deere because I could really care less about them. The best thing you could do is watch some videos/pictures or diagrams. That always helps me. Good luck on your 169!

I believe the Deere motor is the same, but the PTO end of the crankshaft is too long. The wheel horse motor, I believe uses the wrong oil pan to be used for the Cub...... and if that is correct, the blocks are different and a shallow oil pan won't bolt to it.
If that is incorrect, I will stand corrected. I am going off vague memory.  If I am right about the Deere engine..... you could just get the correct crank and swap it. Should be able to get a ground 16HP crank for less than $100 What is wrong with the original motor?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
