Default A few 127 questions...

1) Can anyone tell me what part number is for Chevy points for a K-301, or at least what year and engine these points would be from?
2) Is a new points cover definitely needed when using Chevy points?
3) Has anyone ever fabricated a mechanism to change the angle of the front plow blade from the front seat of a 127?

Thanks very much.

Yeah,the OEM parts wont require any mods at all,and they work fine.I dont see any advantage in using Chevy pointsother than maybe not pitting as fast.

I'm starting a rebuild of my engine, and I'm collecting the parts I'd like to upgrade. The 1960s 8-cyl GM points could be adjusted with a spring-loaded hex key, almost totally eliminating the "creep" you get when tightening the points. I'd imagine the GM points might last a little longer; no way to prove that, though. I'm sure the Kohler points are of very good quality; just thought the GM's would be a good upgrade.

Default Kohler

I would stick with the Kohler ones. There are 2 local stores that have them in stock by you. Bargs in Freehold and Becker Hardware in colts neck. Becker has a ton of old cub parts there and I visit quite often !!!

Although I don't know that the GM points would fit or mount, I have often thought of that design and wondered why it couldn't be implemented onto Kohler Points. It was REAL EASY to adjust or dial in points.

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.
