Edjfleming 0 #1 Posted July 25, 2011 I picked up a yanmar L70 and was going to install it in a 1045 but its 3" too tall. Just wondering if any one can get me the height between the frame and hood on a Letter series or a 300 or 400 series? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky-(Admin) 23,256 #2 Posted July 26, 2011 Ed, on my 400 series there is 20-3/8th" from the top of the frame to the underside of the hood. The hood slopes up some as it gets closer to the steering wheel so the measurement changes some depending on where your taking your measurement from. Mike........

Edjfleming 0 #3 Posted July 26, 2011 Thanks Mike, my motor is 19". That would work, I wonder if the 300 series is the same? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tarcoleo 119 #4 Posted July 26, 2011 With washers or a spacer, you can "buy" as much as an inch of additional clearance by raising the attachment at the front of the hood. In most cases the latch will still work. Tom in RI Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
