Default Kubota or Yanmar, that is the question
So I've been doing research and can't really decide which is a better engine.

Default no comparison
3tna72 yanmar, hands down. Can be found in jd f900 series and in i believe 755 jd utility tractors. Only downfal that motor you have to get internals from deere only. Spun'em over 6000 rpm with aftermarket injection pump and turbo.

Do you know the size of that one? I found a little yanmar out of a 332 John Deere.
I forget the size of the engine.

Default how big you say?
I believe the 3tna72 is about 880cc and 22hp, the 332 should be a 3tn66 and 710cc and only 16hp. Dont quote me but I am pretty sure of those numbers.

Actually I checked on it after I asked and you're right.
it's hard to find one of these motors. I did find one but its across the country!
Now would the 3tna72 be better than the 3tn66 just cause of the size?

Default does size REEEAAALLLYY matter?
In the world of pulling there is no replacement for displacement. I'm not sure what the major differences in build are between the two motors, But I know what we put ours through.

Well some clubs like to limit you on displacement, but how are they to know what it has? I've been looking for aftermarket pumps and have had no luck... is that a special order? Same goes for the turbo... I was thinking of getting a Turbo from a Dodge spinter van. They aren't to big of a Turbo I think. Now for a clutch, what did you guys use? I've seen the clutches You can get for kohlers. They support like up the 60hp, but I'm assuming the little yanmar will make more than that?

A Dodge Sprinter is very large...the turbo'd Kubotas I've seen use the turbo from a Smart car.

It all depends on how much fuel is being pushed through it if it'll spin that sprinter Turbo. Not to mention some internal work. Do you know the specs of a smart car Turbo?? I'm guessing its smalled than a grown mans fist!

I don't know the specs. You don't want to over-boost the engine. I don't know much about these, and I'm guessing a lot of people on this forum don't either. You might want to look for a garden tractor pulling forum.

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.
