Think Kohler or Simplicity will pop for a new "CH" engine? My educated guess, I don't think so.

I have one of the last model year sovereigns I bought brand new for 6,300 has ps/pl. It came with the triad motor, and right around 75 hours i started to have problems. I had to take it to the dealer and write several letters to simplicity, but with the help of Al Eden and some others I got simplicity to put in a brand new CH18 engine. That being said the tractor runs flawlessley now. I have been trying to sell the sovereign with a ch18, snow cab, tiller deck ect and cant even get any realistic offers, I think 5k may be a bit much, esp if it is a non PS model.

Seems like there's more 75th's around than the standard models of the same years. Its unfortunate that many people bought these as an investment only instead of using them and getting an engine under warranty. I've never seen one sell for new price.
