1650 rebuilt engine problems

Just had a machinist re-bore .030 over on my 1650. He set piston, connecting rod, and crank. He also put new throttle shaft in carb. I put rest of motor back together and put in tractor. Set governor and carb quarter turn past settings according to manual. Ran on and off for awhile. Let it cool & re-torqued head bolts. Motor running pretty good and started cutting grass. Smoke coming from carb area. Tractor stalls out in middle of cut on slight slope. Kinda hard to restart but turns over okay. Let it sit for 5 minutes, & starts back up. Take it to the garage and go to pull plug to look at coming out, kinda hard stripped a couple threads out of cylinder head. If it wasn't for bad luck wouldn't have any at all. Any comments or suggestions appreciated.
Tim

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.
