Cub Cadet Series 2000 62" Deck

[Noobz347]

I have a Cub Cadet and recently the motor started making noise and spitting oil out over the lawn.

What I need to know is:

I'm ordering the new Shelby crate motor and fabbing up the mounts. Where can I get a set of headers to clear my large deck?

 

[Noobz347]

Sweet. I was going to order my FWA and LCAs from them anyway.

I hear they're running a special on billet key fob covers too. You might as well get one of them while you're at it.

 

[Noobz347]

Does it look as good as the one I have now?

Flavor Flav neck medallion while you ride the souped up Cub Cadet 2000 with Shelby Crate motor and stolen UPR designed suspension. Got a lot going on there.

 

[Noobz347]

Das how I roll!

I was going to post a ryan218 lawnmower burnout but he deleted all his media.

 

[Noobz347]

bastard.

Get the deck bored out. Once you have a 62.030 deck you won't see how you got it done with a 62" deck.

Ya know... I hear that if you trim the bushes that it will make your deck look bigger.

That doesn't help if your nickname is "tuna can".

 

[Noobz347]

If your nick name is, "tuna can" then I'd say the problem is with your girl.

this thread has gone to chit

 

[Noobz347]

It pretty much started out thatta way.

Are you running carb or EFI? Remember the blades will be running counter-clockwise so you need a reverse-rotation deck belt or you will need to mow the lawn backwards.

 

[Noobz347]

Good call. Here's a thought though...

If I order the crate motor from Austrailia, will it spin in the correct direction for my reverse rotation mower deck??

I see Noobz still rocking the cub cadet thread this week.

No they change the cam's gear ratio and water jackets in consideration of the Coriolis force and the different Hemispheres. So unless you put in your order for an untouched engine, it will rotate the same as the north American version. You can modify it using a black 'n decker blender and some grinding stones but it's not recommended because it was said so on a message board.

Ah yes... I recall something about the TSB on that but thought it was only for ASSEMBLED cars. I should have thought that it applied to just the motors themselves.

Perhaps just turning the whole motor upside down and swapping over to a dry sump.
