When I tore down my k301 I removed the cast exhaust elbow. To my dismay the threads on the block and the pipe are so corroded that I'm going to need to machine the face of the exhaust on the block and put 5/16" studs for a flange attachment. The problem is I don't know what the downward angle of the original elbow was. Any chance someone with a 127 could measure the approximate diwnward angle from horizontal for me?

Wouldn't it be easier to run a 1" pipe tap into the hole to clean up the threads and then get a used elbow?

No. The threads are not clogged; they're essentially gone.

There's maybe 1/8" of good thread right next to the exhaust flange then the rest are just so corroded away that you can't even feel them.

Make your flange out of 1/2 " stock and thread the flange to 1" pipe thread, taking care to go shallow so your new street elbow or nipple/elbow if you choose, will be adlustable, if it threads in too deep, just grind off the protruding excess.
You will 'prolly have to use allen bolts so you have enough clearance, or dimple the pipe BTDT. |

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.
