Raider69 122 #1 Posted 2 hours ago Does anyone know if there's a height difference between a K series that bolts directly to the frame and a cradle mount K series? I'm repowering a '68 Raider 9 with a K341AQS out of a JD using the pan and cradle mount from a C series WH. I'm also repowering my '75 B100 with a K301AQS out of a JD using the same style C series pan and cradle mount. Just wondering if I may run into hood clearance issues. TIA.

953 nut 65,058 #2 Posted 2 hours ago I am reasonably sure the center line of the crankshaft will be the same as your Tecumseh. Wheel horse made the cradle mount to compensate for the crankshaft height to be the same as the standard oil pan Kohler. Those issues were all covered in this thread. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pfrederi 20,202 #4 Posted 2 minutes ago (edited) Here is a shaker mount K bolted direct to frame. Spacers are the same ones used in a 8hp shaker mount plus 3 washers... No belt guard mods needed Edited 1 minute ago by pfrederi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
