K301 make over (pics)
Bought a 105 on Ebay a couple months ago. I only went for the 105, but the fella said "on your way out you can have that 12hp engine laying in the stickers over there, it's froze up and I'll junk it anyway". I says OK and threw it on the trailer. Then he says "You can have that 125 frame in the weeds", so we threw that on the trailer too. I tore the engine down( it sure was ugly
 ) and put some work in it. I had to get it bored .030 over to get the rust out, (but it looks pretty now ). New piston, rings and connecting rod. I had the crank miced and it was fine. The key-way for the PTO side was worn bad , so I had another key-way cut 180 deg.(wanted about $300 to fix old key-way ). New valves, seats and guides. Head was flat and block is good. New plug, points, points pin and rebuilt the carburetor and fuel bowl shut off. New muffler and made my own exhaust ell (hated to pay that kind of money to buy one ). What i used is a Wagner Steel Bent Elbow, 1" Schedule 40 Pipe, 1" Inside Radius, 90 Degree, 2" Tangents($9.39). I cut 1" off one end and threaded it, then cut 3/4" off the other end (fits great). Cleaned, primed and Painted all parts and the block (not the head). I followed J-Mech's method to time it and I'm going to try to fire it ,tomorrow.  OK, enough chatter, on to the pics (we love pics)

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.
