wheelhorsenut69 0 #1 Posted March 26, 2011 how much do front wheel weights go for inside the wheels in a c 161 also what is a 16 hp engine that is supposedly restored 5 years ago valued at inside of the c 161 with a stuck 8 speed rear end. it comes with a push blade, front and rear weights, a 48" side discharge mower deck and chains but it is ways away too so gas is a drag too. opinions...... wanted for the wheelhorsenut69 from the north. thanks all :wh: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kelly 1,028 #3 Posted March 26, 2011 Front weights orig. WH ones bring $100+ but off brand ones can be had a little cheaper, I have some if your interested? send me a PM, a good running 16hp Kohler around me bring good money, the pulling tractor guys buy lots of them, just a engine you can hear run, $300+ you say rebuilt, I would have to see the paper work to see what was done to it?? big can O worms there was it bored, new piston, rod valves ground, ect..... or just new rings, the blade $100+ as I said weights front $100+ rears $150+ 48" deck if nice $200+ chains $50 rest of tractor depends on condition but $75, if I was to make a offer on something like this depending on condition of everything $300-500 but that is me I'm cheap and don't need them to badly with near 100 tractors here.

rmaynard 14,945 #4 Posted March 26, 2011 The value of the individual parts may add up to more than the value of the tractor, if you can get the whole thing. A "rebuilt" engine is going to be priced according to what was actually done in the course of the rebuild, and how it was maintained and used afterward. As a guess, you can take this information as a guideline. I just rebuilt my K241S. The machine work, which included bore/hone, valve seat grind, crankshaft turned, cost $110.00. The piston, rings, connecting rod, gaskets, carburetor kit, points, and fuel pump cost me $180. I have not included and miscellaneous material like lubes, or cleaning supplies. So the cost to rebuild for me was about $290.00. Add that to the original cost of the engine ($200.00), and my dead cost on a K241 is $490.00. So I would say that the value of the 16HP engine would be in the $400.00 to $500.00 range. If you are trying to buy individual parts from the tractor, I would be inclined to make and offer for the whole thing rather than just buy parts. Start at $400.00 and be prepared to go higher.
