Default Engine parts to replace on rebuilding?
With the discussion about replacing the governor gear, I got to thinking about my Kohler. I picked up a 10HP k241 this past fall that I hope to rebuild next spring/summer. What parts should I replace, in addition to the governor gear while it is all apart?

I was thinking I could start buying up some parts now to spread out the cost.

Strip it down to the bear block then take the block, valves and crank shaft to a reputable machine shop. They can tell you how much it needs bored and if the crank needs turned. Have them grind the valves and seats and check the guides too. I use only genuine Kohler parts when I rebuild and with the machine shop work and parts, it usually comes to around $500.00 plus my labor. This is for the stock rebuilds I do. I've built puller engines for guys that can run way over $2000.00.

Just wondering...where do you guys normally buy your Kohler parts? Direct from Cub dealers or is there better places to buy the same part at a cheaper price normally?

I buy most of mine from my local Kohler dealer which is Evergreen FS. I've also bought a lot from madsons@ihcubcadet.com. They are GREAT to deal with too, know there stuff and are FAST at shipping!!

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.
