I picked up my K301 AQS from the machine shop today and I'm not going to get a chance to get it in the 1200 before the SC plow day. The head got .010 milled off to make the head flat. They guy said it really needed it. It had acouple of spots where it was wavy in the gasket area. It looks great now and I can't wait to get it reassembled and in the 1200. I don't have any pics of the engine yet. I'll get some before and after I repaint the block.

Just for fun, you might want to stick that head on a sheet of glass and try to get a 0.001" feeler gauge under it. I've removed numerous heads from tractors that were 'milled flat' that were definitely not flat.

I should have my 12hp block crank and head back from the machine shop @ Tuesday next week. Can't wait to get started on it. I have got to get all the governor stuff so I am not sitting here twiddling my thumbs when it gets back, LOL.

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.
