You didn't get hurt at all on the price. Nice buy! I'd pull the head and pan and see what's up. Otherwise, keep your eyes peeled for a nice, used 12 horse to put in it. There's just something about a nice 129.............

Sam, you think that little diesel would work? I figure getting the adapter from the flywheel to the drive shaft made will be the issue. Man a 129D sounds pretty cool to me!

We have a member here "Jeff in PA" that could probably make the adapter pretty easily with some measurements.

Thanks for the link Sam, I happened to locate that one today too. The more I look at these lil motors the more I would like to try one.

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.
