boovuc 1,090 #1 Posted August 16, 2015 I know what most of the readership is thinking. Another KT Kohler with rod damage and the owner wants to transplant another engine in his 417.Well...no.I have a 2nd 417-8 Speed but it came to me with a 60's vintage 14 horse Kohler K under it's hood. Bought a KT17 Series II from Scotty the other week to drop in it. Hopefully I'll have another 8 speed with an electric lift soon.I got both the tractor and the engine pretty cheap so I won't have much in this machine as opposed to the refreshed one I did in June. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
