Welcome to OCC, your rules seem pretty straight forward. It sounds like you can put a pretty good build on a 16 hp engine and beef up the drive train. You will have plenty of stock parts to sell when your done.

You will have plenty of stock parts to sell when your done. Good luck, looking forward to some pictures of your progress. I want to build a similar tractor with good mid range power for plowing dirt. It seems like a puller type setup could really do well in the field.

Building a puller motor and building a "working" engine are two completely different things. Puller engines are high RPM motors build to make power for 300'. You don't want a motor like that in a worker, after 30 min of plowing you'll blow it. It won't take that kind of abuse for an extended period. Plus, it's gonna heat up quick. Your best bet..... is a bigger motor if you want more power.

those rules are very close to NQS SA class. those can be very strong engines. your 12 wouldn't stand any chance since you can get a good 16 SA up into the 50's for horsepower. now once you do that you'll need a dart rearend setup, at least a 3 speed trans, hardend top shaft. a good clutch, driveshaft ect. If I were you I'd just spend some time in stock and pick up a used 16 SA complete tractor or learn more about whats needed to run that class.

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.
