Latest news on putting the 3.1 in the 782 Cub Cadet. So far so good, the tractor engine is mounted in place. I have decided the easiest way to get a distributor to fit is to cut the runner on the intake to allow clearance. I cut a half moon shaped area large enough for the 2.8 distributor to fit. While I had the hole open I bored a 1 inch hole through into the next runner to help feed that cylinder. It won't be a problem on a tractor. I then used a piece of aluminum shaped to fit the hole in the runner and closed up the half moon shap. I will be modifying the plenum to put a carburetor on it next.
