Jigs, could you direct me to the site where you saw this or to any place that might have information?Rumor is the [AFFILIATE='1, nofollow=true, newwindow=true, title="Kubota"']Kubota[/AFFILIATE] V2203, is the same family, and can swap in. But, I have no conformation on that.
it is much easier to mod an oil pan to fit in a tractor frame that to fit on an different engine so yes you will need to use the oil pan that came with the replacement engine, you may be able to combing the lower part of the original oil pan to mate up to the doner oil pan.Jigs, your answer gives me some hope. That V2203 engine is about 39-40 hp. If my Daedong 4A200 has a standard bellhousing and the V 2203 has one also, it would appear that one hurdle would be the oil pan and whether the front part of the 4 wd shaft would fit. I possibly could use the Kubota pan and modify it. My other concern was whether i would find similar hookups for electrical and hydraulic lines.
I wish I could find someone who had made this swap.
I love my LSs but they would not make a good tractor engine IMOI’m shocked that LS swaps haven’t hit the tractor world yet.
I see them in almost every car or truck manufactured.
That's not a helpful reply 5030 and kind of arrogant. Even with good maintenance engines fail. Mine is 20 yrs old and is showing signs..Which is why I'm very careful about maintenance. Don't need a new motor because of stupidity.
