Alky-Burning Cub Cadet V8 tractor-Pull Monster Ford 351 Cleveland

Paul Jones dropped an alcohol-fuel Ford 351 Cleveland V8 running 15:1 CR into his Cub Cadet riding mower. And why not? It fits, doesn't it? Built for pulling contests, but also handy when you need the lawn done and you don't have a lot of time. Just listen to that thing bark. Recorded at the Genesee Valley Antique Auto Club show on Aug 1, 2010 on the grounds of the Rochester (NY) Institute of Technology.

how does the motor not get hot i dont see no radiator

[Zoomlens]

@harveypatrick It runs on methanol. No radiator needed for short running times. Methanol cools cylinder when it vaporizes.

hows the tranny and rear axle setup?

[Zoomlens]

@mark16443 Google "Paul Jones" tractor and you should get lots of build info, maybe even his e-mail address.
