Default High performance Air Filter Upgrade?
I have a new ZT1 54 Cub Cadet. It came with a Kohler 24 hp KT735.

This Kohler motor has the short, low profile air filter...

In the Kohler booklet I noticed there is a High Performance version of this motor that has a taller air filter.

Does anyone know if the High Performance air filter "cover" will fit/fasten to my existing motor, shorter air filter cover?

If so my plan is to Upgrade the Cover and go with the taller air filter!

Best Regards,
JP

Cannot help with your air filter question but let you know that the Pro series Kohlers also came with a high performance spark plug (platinum) , oil filter (larger capacity) and fuel filter
The photos of both standard and Pro engines (Horizontal) show the same air filter cover if that is any consolation

If you want to take it up another notch you can buy thick and thin pre-cleaners

I'm also considering placing course foam filter material in the 2 Inlet Holes on the lower filter housing piece...

Default Amazon purchase is a fit!!!
I received the Air Filter Cover yesterday from Amazon and it's a perfect fit to the existing Top plastic Shroud!

So I've now got a Pro Filter set-up! Twice the air intake and filtration!
Nothing wrong with more filtered air.

I'm now considering a course foam material to insert into the 2 intake holes on the bottom filter housing. And maybe introduce a couple of new holes in the new top cover for more air intake and of course place foam filtration to those...

regards,
JP

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.
