I made a deal on a used muffler and duct assy today. The duct is missing the top, but that should be easy to build. He thru in the aluminum piece that bolts on the engine, says its broken. Now I need to find an exhaust elbow or make one.

your mowing pics look great! I agree- those old Kohlers really like to work and seem to run "right" when under load.

Picked up a few parts for the 1450. Got a used muffler and air duct, just missing the top which should be easy to make. The aluminum piece is broken, not sure what I'm going to do with it yet. I'm waiting to here on an exhaust elbow. I set the new muffler over the existing pipe and it helps quiet it down over the pepper pot muffler. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbIfAAMRPGU

I welded and painted the lower air duct so its ready to install once I get an elbow and the aluminum piece repaired and installed.

Sounds better with the stock muffler! Great video to show us how well it works.

Nice ride. I've got a 1450 with a tiller on it. Lots of power for the garden. You definitely want a separate mule drive with the straight pulleys. I just bought an extended sleeve hitch from Jeff for a hiller and cultivator as well so I don't have to remove the rear PTO for Brinly compatibles.

The stock muffler definitely sounds better. Thanks for sharing your vid.

I let the 1450 sit on some concrete for a week. It has leaked quite a bit of Hytran. Wonder what I will find when I open it up.

Before you open it up try and locate the leak you might be luckey and have to tighten the tube.

It looks like its leaking around the left center bolt on the rear cover.

I bead blasted and then painted the new(used) muffler with some High Heat black. Also bought some lug bolts off ebay. There were only 2 lug bolts on one side and 3 on the other when we picked it up. I'm waiting to here back on an exhaust elbow so I can get these exhaust parts installed.

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.
