I don't recall where I read it, it has to have been 15 or 20 years ago. I do remember it showed a QL with an 1850 heading. that's all I really remember about it. the K361 was not built for a very long time. it had allot of problems dropping valve seats. usually the exhaust and they shook allot . some of you guys think your other K series models shook. it had nothing on the K361. I believe Kohler probably talked IH out of it since it would have to engineer a new block to fit a cub and talked them into the new KT17 as a better engine.no real vibration. We all know where that went.

Yes it does shake quite a bit. I tested it on the bench (floor rather) and she shook rattled and rolled when I started her. Wasn't running right so I didn't run it long. I believe it to be that i just slapped a carb i had on the shelf on it, set it to the factory settings and went with it. No points clean, new plug or anything. Just how I got it out of the shipping crate. Did not even have a gas tank. just a short length of hose and a funnel. I installed Kirk's engine balance kit in an attempt to calm it down a bit. After the rebuild I have the proper #30 carter that has the 1.2" throttle bore only found on the k361s. Going to send it out to Jake at American Legends for a throttle bushing kit (If i can find his phone #). The original carb was set up to run propane by epoxying the idle jet into the carb. Was not to pleased to see that. I did a google search on a cub cadet experimental machine and all it really came up with was the cubette or the Os with serials 409-411. Perhaps with more digging I can find something.

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.
