any suggestions
Well I finally got around to taking the piston out of my 100, only to see the top ring in 3 pieces. So I took it the machine shop only to find that it is a 10hp block with a 12hp piston in it and that the cylinder is egg shaped. It will take approximately another .020" bored out to get it back into shape. My question is should i just have it completely rebuilt and just be done with it or what? All suggestions are welcomed.

You have plenty of room to still overbore it. K301 blocks have +.030 pistons and it is the same block. Have no fear.

Mine was a K301 block - I bored it to almost a 14hp. I think the bore is 3.410. It is Awesome! The vibration is bad, but its so strong....

Definitely, while that block is stripped - polish the intake and exhaust ports. It doesnt have to be super smooth, but to get the casting lines and ' pits ' out of the ports makes a noticable difference.

William - I was just reading some controversy over polishing the intake port. One argument is that you get better fuel atomization with the rougher intake, as it supposedly creates more turbulence. There was no argument on the exhaust ports, smooth is good there.
I dunno, sounds like a plausible argument...

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.
