Long story short, I'm building a log splitter. I have a good complete spare K-301 sitting here that I'd like to use. I would like to close couple the hydraulic pump to the Kohler. I know a bracket exists to do this that bolts to the Kohler, that the pump then bolts to. The problem is the the large pulley for the S/G is in the way and I'd like to retain the electric start. I'm fishing for ideas on how to get around this...thoughts?

Some years ago I was faced with the same problem. As far as I know there is not an adapter made to get around the starter pulley.
I ended up using a Lovejoy coupling and building a very simple bracket to hold the pump. I know this isn't exactly what you wanted to hear, but the Lovejoy couplings really are pretty strong and best of all they are very forgiving if your alignment isn't just perfect. I've been using my splitter for a number of years now and have never had any kind of pump/bracket/coupling related problem. Good luck with your project.

^^^^ love joys are the way to go. make sure you buy spare rubber lovejoy inserts though. when they go, there is no saving them.

Thanks guys.. I kinda thought I'd have to do something like that. It's really not a big deal I suppose. Close coupling it would have packaged a little more nicely, but whatever, no big deal.

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.
