I'm comparing the same Cub Cadet LXT 1046 with two different engines. One is a 22HP Kohler V Twin and the other a 20HP Kawasaki V Twin. The Kawasaki is priced $200 higher. Is it worth the extra????

I would say: Yes, it is. From personal experience, it runs smoother and quieter, and the Kawi is built to slightly higher standards than most other comparable Kohler and Briggs engines. The LT1046KW is IMO the best lawn tractor on the market right now in terms of value.
