No governor???

Recommended Posts

12 hp Kohler

Picked up a Cub 124 puller project yesterday. Upon further investigation of the engine I noticed it came factory with no governor. It’s a kohler k301AT, I’m guessing there pretty uncommon as I have never seen one before. Belive it’s out of an arctic cat snowmobile. Anybody have more information on it ? Does it have stronger internals to run at higher rpm ?

I believe so, makes it a perfect engine for a puller. Just seems a odd that it never had one

Guess that makes sense for a snowmobile. wonder if it has inserts in the rod and/or if it is one of those forged rod?

They did leave out balance gears but rod and piston are the same as all other K301.  No air cleaner just a shield to keep big chunks out...
