i have just bought an Allis Chalmers 917. It has a hole in the block. I need a used or rebuildable motor for this tractor. Can anyone help me here? Dave

Dave...
I think that mower had a single cylinder Kohler engine...
They are around used... You might check if you have a garden tractor pulling club in your area. They usually have members that keep engines available...
This place has refit engines for your AC... a little pricey but, may give you ideas for fitting a different engine...

That is a nice little tractor , so it is worth restoring... :smile:KennyV

Kenny: The motor is a twin cylinder, but I have found out that the John Deer 317 used the KT17 engine also. That broadens my horizon. Dave.
