It's the KT version of an M20. Spec number 49200 and higher are Series II. Any and all KT17 pros/cons would apply. If it's a Series II, I would imagine it could be rebuilt. Overheating is probably a carb/timing/clean stuff easy fix.

Matt,
So if at worst case, if it is a series 2. Then it can be rebuilt with magnum parts ? And I would have to assume that the heads,jugs,carb, ext, are the same as the magnums also ?

I just don't know if I want to spend $100 on it. I mean I can find good running mag 18's for $300-$400. And I know the parts are available to rebuild them. I wouldn't have to cross parts over. He has had it apart and now it won't start. I think I might be better off waiting for something else.

Jugs are probably the same. Carb is better than a Mag would have. I think the heads on a Mag are different; that's how they got 1 more hp out of each engine. Otherwise, internals from an M20 would probably work. I can't say for sure that's the case, but I know you can do that with the KT17.

Put M20 heads on it and you'd probably have 20 hp. I've heard that 2 extra hp over the 18 really makes a difference. How many $300 M20s have you found?

Matt,
I haven't found any $300 m20's, But the 18's are on ebay and craigslist fairly often. And I went and had a look see just now. It is not anything I want to deal with.

Thanks for the help though.

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.
