Default Harbor Freight V-Twin
This is in the latest flyer, looks like a clone of the Honda V-Twin. 22HP for $600.00 may be worth looking into. Can't find anymore info on it yet and it doesn't show on the HF web site yet.

Just a side note a friend of mine's son builds engines for carts and racing. He has found these China made engines are low cost and almost as good as the real Honda engines. I would say take a chance. price is right.
Regards,
Chris

Yeah I've had my share of Chonda failures including dropped valves, leaks, etc. and parts availability and look ups are interesting to say the least. Nothing like a real Honda but that's just my opinion.

They are pretty decent engines. We use them to repower our dewatering pumps. Have not had a minutes trouble out of one. We set them up to run up to 12 hours at a time.

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.
