Moparfanforever 844 #1 Posted August 10 I bought this 520 with a bad engine and was going to part it out for another project, but thought, why not engine swap it!! Swapped in a Magnum 12,wheel weights inside and out, new tires all around,led lights, four foot blade. Tires are Lawn Trac. Never used them before, l hope they work okay. 1 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JCM 9,130 #6 Posted August 10 Very nice. Would never have thought of that swap.Bought this new in 89. New OEM Kohler fuel pump 4 years ago. Many oil changes, air filter, pre cleaner foam fiters. 600 hours on engine. Awesome, 12 HP Magnum. Good Luck with it. @Moparfanforever 1 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
