Finally pulled the K321 out of the 1450
Been awhile since I have posted. Now that hunting season is over, I have picked up the wrenches and what I have found ain't good. I pulled the engine. 1st problem, PO ran without checking mount bolts on oilpan for a long time. I will replace with a cast iron unit. I noticed excessive movement at the rod to crankpin. Pull piston and mic'd crank journal. 1.490, 1.489, 1.490 then 90 degrees 1.495, 1.494, 1.494.
 What to do with the crank?? Option one, turn .010 and cross fingers. Option two, turn .020 and use aftermarket rod. What is the best rod to use?? Option three, turn .020 and use bearing inserts on a new modified Kohler rod. What bearing inserts do I use?? Option four, find a better crank. Anybody have one lay'in around? I also found the cam endplay to be .028. Can I just shim it to spec or is the cam wasted?? The rest of it looked surprisingly good. And NO balance gears.:biggrin2.gif: Price is a concern but not time. I have my 1200 for mowing duties and can drag my Fergie to the house to disc my garden spot this season. My plan for the 1450 is to pull my Brinley plow. Need some wisdom here. Thanks a bunch.

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.
