Been a while since I've done any updates on this project. Last summer/fall (2016) I bought and restored a low hour (less than 700 hours) 1991 520H complete with a 48" deck- but with a dropped valve seat. I handed the Onan off to Renew Performance up in Greenville, MI to have them professionally replace the valve seat and grind all the valves. I cleaned up the tractor, repainted most of the tins, replaced any bad/missing parts, and reassembled it all back to essentially brand new condition. I also punched holes in the belt guard to improve air flow over the rear cylinder to try and prevent the valve seat from dropping again. I also bought and mechanically rebuilt a 60" mower deck for it. I've been mowing all summer with it (2 acres) and it's been flawless. I still use my 1987 418C with 48" deck to mow around the house and other tight areas. The 520H takes care of the wide open areas. The cut quality of that 60" deck is unmatched by anything else I've ever used.
It was a bit tricky trying to hold the camera just right while also keeping control of the tractor so my lines stay straight.
