Lots of Cub parts out there. The only thing to consider on a Cub, is that it is NOT a sleeved engine. If the cylinders are fairly worn, you will have to send the block out to be bored and honed to the next correct oversize that pistons and rings are available for.

I like all sizes of tractors, but the Cub is great for smaller jobs and general around the house/farm chores.
