Nick,
I don't believe the 8 hp engine would be able to handle the 44" deck.

I run a 44A on my 1250, I wouldn't want to run one with anything smaller than a 12hp.

I had an 800 with a 44A and it was fine as long as the grass wasn't tall. On the 38s, the outer blades have to spin REALLY fast since the blades are so short, and they pull harder than the larger decks as a result. The 800 handled the 44" deck a bit better than the 86 I had handled the 38" deck. The 800 was also a pretty fresh rebuild, but still...I think as long as the engine is in decent shape it'd work ok.

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.
