682 Engine Swap Spacer Question
Hey guys, I am in the middle of, or I should say closer to the end of this 682 engine swap. Went from the KT 17 to the CH20 (thanks to Olds, who did an outstanding job at crating and sending this motor)
 . My question is about the spacers between the engine and the engine plate. When I use the spacers from the KT, I don't like the drive shaft angle. Without the spacers it pretty close to a level drive shaft, but even without the spacers, its a hair high. Question is, are the spacers there for driveshaft alignment, or does the motor have to sit on them for some reason? I am using a engine plate from an 1864 because it had holes drilled that put the motor far enough forward so the pto lined up better with the mule drive. The height seems the same even with the original plate. I currently have it mounted with no spacers and it seems to be fine like that, it seemed that the feet of the motor sat flush without the rest of the motor bottom touching the plate. Other than a challenging oil change, will it hurt the motor to sit flush on the plate? On the drive shaft mod, im currently working a 2000 series shaft mod that should be more forgiving on the driveshaft angle. Thanks for any advice. TB

I don't have the answer to your question. All I can say is that the shaft on my 1864 looks pretty well aligned with the spacers.

Both tractors use the same height for the spacer. 0.469in. The newer ones are 1in diameter the old ones are 5/8in.

I would use spacers. I made my own out of 3/8 cause I thought the .4xx ones
were a little high. I took a KT out and put in a Ch20 in a 782.

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.
