Is this the kit in question?
http://cgi.ebay.com/fits-Kohler-Engi...item1c0fdac2fb Keep in mind the following pertains to my everyday/stock rebuild Kohler motors. There is more to rebuilding-overhauling a motor than what this kit has in it. The following parts need replaced when rebuilding a Kohler motor: piston rings connecting rod governor-(if it is a plastic gear) gaskets crankshaft seals new head bolts Depending on how the parts look in the crankcase breather they may need replaced. I like to replace the crankcase breather filter when I rebuild a motor. Odds are the valves will need ground or replaced and the valve guides will need replaced. The guides may be ok now....2 years later the guides will need replaced.....easier to replace now than 2 years from now. I only use Kohler replacement piston(s) in my Kohler motors. The kit says the piston is top of the line....Kohler piston cost more and the quality is better. I do not install a used connecting rod in a rebuilt motor. The material will weaken over time. The only connecting rod I will use in my Kohler is one made by Kohler. I had a few friends bring freshly rebuilt motors over because they had a knock in them. The Stens rod was the problem. Best thing you can do is spend a few extra dollars on the good parts.

By the time you buy his "add ons" (just the ones HE has listed) you're already at almost $200.00 I think you can buy Kohler stuff for "darn" near that much.

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.
