Yikes! I hope you didn't tear the bills as you yanked them out of your wallet! Quite the deal!

Superbinder thank you very much. I installed a Kubota Z620 into a Bolens GT2000. Basically the same tractor as your but it was 20hp gas. I have not come up with a radiator yet. All are too thin. With your information I should be able to track one down.
Your glow plug relay may be bad. You should be able to use a starter solenoid for that purpose and they are much less expensive. If it is the ignition switch a momentary on toggle switch can be used instead of purchasing the ignition switch.
Thanks again for the information!
