sniff, sniff.:bawling::bye:............................OK,. I'm better now :D ...............................................Sold the old girl today ($1500) and watched my old friend of 22 years drive off into the sunset (well sorta) After a 3-4 week run sitting in the driveway with a for sale sign, someone finally walked up with cash in hand and I sold it. Got a new project in the works if I ever find the time to get er dun...................I'm gonna put a 302 in a 67 Cub Cadet lawn tractor :icon_thumby:

Would the torque of a 302 be enough to roll over a lawn mower. :icon_confused:

Keep us posted, it sounds interesting. When I get done with my swap I am going to try to put my 2.8 is a full-sized 1940's tractor... should be entertaining. It won't be as dramatic as a V8 garden tractor but should turn some heads. If it was up to snuff it would be more than twice the HP that the tractor originally had.
