That's nice! You could put a 2 output gear box on it and have a splitter & a generator. :)

Stripped off the generator, actually had to to get it out of the enclosure.
Its been sitting for 20+ years, rolling the flywheel over at first indicated no compression, but after a few revolutions Im getting it on one cylinder. May give it a drink of atf through the intake and see what happens. Could well be stuck valves. The hour meter is only showing 582 hours.

That is one nice freebie Greg. looks like the same engine as my Kubota lawnmower, although I'm sure they come in various displacement / horsepower sizes. Mine has the hydrostatic gearbox drive from one end of the crank and the PTO for the deck off the other end via twin B-section v belts.

While the engine marinates in ATF Im working on the transfer case. This is the driven shaft, it will drive the one hydraulic pump and the electric clutch. I need to cut a keyway down that 1:4 taper, any ideas how to hold the shaft?

3 jaw chuck or collet in a a fixture on an angle? Me? I'd cheat and try to hold the shaft in the vise with a spacer under it to hold the angle and go for it.

The vice idea was what I was planning Vinny then I remembered I'd built a tooling plate and have never used it. Worked like a charm. Almost a sine plate.

Very nice setup. I'll have to remember that. I'll have to build a tooling plate first... I do have a tapping head, and if I could ever figure out what size the J-Flex collets are, I'd order some bigger sizes.

Would sure like to have a tapping head, you can't imagine how much when I was making that plate. Saw it on a machining video, possibly OX Tool, he was using it with a pivot and stops to radius the ends of linkages. Worked really nice, but now I can't remember what I was going to make the linkages for.
