I didn't actually swap. A buddy gave me the tractor minus a motor. I had the diesel and was looking for something to do with it. So....

Duh... It's a Diesel thing!!!!!!
A thousand pardons...
. I overlooked the most obvious answer! 
(You're right, this IS a diesel forum.....)Ah yes..... you gave a 'dead' lawn tractor new life and a motor a 'job' to show what it can do...... a match made in heaven. ;p Well, maybe in a shop...
So what do yo do w/ the thing.....

Right now just use it to pull a cart around the yard and pull a sulky with dad in tow at the steam/tractor shows. I'd like to rig up a pto and hang an old homelite generator on it that another buddy gave me. It's missing it's motor also. I could use it for remote power. I think it's around 3500 watts.

I hear you about the generator thing. I've seen pics of old Sears Suburban 'accessories' and one item is a generator head that is mounted in the front and the belt goes to it. The only thing is to I suppose is to see if the generator runs the right direction as the motor (or if it doesn't matter). Just a matter of fabbing a bracket and tentioner for the belt.
