Just a tip if your older Mustang needs new power. After having mine sit under a tarp for a few years I decided i needed to bite the bullet and get it running. I researched all of the repower sights. I went to a rebuilder about getting the Onan rebuilt but i felt it was cost prohibitive because of the price on Onan parts, and the block needed to be bored and resleeved. He tried to talk me out of going to something else, but I think it was just for his $ benefit. After some patience i found a good deal on Kohler 25HP that is only a year or 2 old and like new. Got it for less than half of new price at Northern tool. After welding in a raised motor mount and subbing in Lovejoy connectors for the sprocket and chain, I have a great homeowner sized skidsteer that has plenty of power for any job that I thrown at it here or at my friends farm. I really loved it with all of the snow we had this year!
