417-8 Speed Engine Swap

Recommended Posts

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.

Just the fact I have a plan is a step in the right direction the way things have gone this summer! :huh:

I've been doing projects around the house and camp after I noticed it was almost September. Where did this summer go?
