rustyoldjunk 127 #1 Posted November 26, 2014 I went after some parts for my GT14 a few days ago and came home with this pretty straight C165 8 speed minus engine. I have a S7D cast iron recoil start 7 hp Wisconsin that I have been looking for a tractor to use it on. I think I will put it on this C165 for now. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky-(Admin) 19,674 #3 Posted November 26, 2014 Should work fine for putting around. I set up a 1976 C-120 for my son (b-day gift) when he turned 9. It was a complete tractor minus the motor. Ended up with a Briggs 5hp yank start on it and it was great! He put many miles on it toolin around the yard and thru the woods on the trails. We never put an attachment on it, probably didn't have enough grunt for that. Mike......... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Firpo701 407 #4 Posted November 26, 2014 Cool! Love those old Wisconsins! I have one on an old military generator that runs like a top. The magnetos on them are wicked!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rustyoldjunk 127 #6 Posted November 27, 2014 (edited) I agree the cast iron Wisconsin is a severe duty engine and very torquie for it's size. I figure it would be a match for a C85. It should,plow snow or plow the garden. I love the deep healthy sound of the old cast iron Wisconsin so I have been looking for a tractor to put the S7D on to putt around on and hear it run.
