Chief 83 said: (quoted from post at 06:40:26 03/04/09) Crank should be back tomorrow. Bearings, rings and gaskets are ordered. Replacement head should come in by the end of the week. I'm getting closer to going back together. I'm deeper into this than planned ($) so while I don't want to miss anything crucial I don't want to break the bank. The head is used. Does it have to be milled or is it likely to be ok? The clutch disc looks pretty good. Does anyone know how thick a new one would be? If it's close I would like to reuse this one. What else should I do now that I'll be sorry I didn't do later as long as I am this deep into the motor? I'm sure I will have lots more question upon re-assembly. Thanks

I just put on a new to me head.. used. Checked it on my bench with a good steel straight edge. Looked good, went on after it was wire wheeled and cleaned up. It does NOT require milling in most cases. These heads do not require the tolerances of many newer engines, the C-60 is a forgiving mill. As long as there is no obvious twists, cups or dish to it, it should be ok. Remember to use a new head gasket, new head bolts.. they are available at any good fastener supplier, use C5A or Kopper Kote on the threads and maybe High Tack on the gasket itself.
For the clutch information and other info from the service manuals, check my Cub Manual Server Also, it is important that you torque the head according to the directions in the GSS-1411. Failure to do so WILL result in a cracked head.. I know.. been there done that... Check out the Clutch specs also.

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
