As some may recall, my diesel Buda FL needs to be rebuilt. Some here and elsewhere say a Cockshutt 30 engine will 'drop right in'( well more or less..I guess. So here's what I bought to be the donor.1950 model 30, everything works.Now I'm torn between abusing it or using it.  ------------- 3 D-14s,A-C forklift, B-112 Kubota BX23S lil' TOOT( The Other Orange Tractor) Never burn your bridges, unless you can walk on water |

I NEED the forklift more than another tractor. Also I blow snow away,easier than chewing up 1000 sqft of gravel lot ! Jay ------------- 3 D-14s,A-C forklift, B-112 Kubota BX23S lil' TOOT( The Other Orange Tractor) Never burn your bridges, unless you can walk on water |

Can you find another bloke that has a good engine and needs what you don't want? Like at the Cockshutt thread at YT - I can't dob you as there were issues with passwords and they don't seem to have allowed for that happening |
