[Bser]

I bought a rougher than rough L245 that runs great. How many horses and cubic inches is this thing?

The L245 is also Kubotas way of advertising the horse power: i.e. GROSS HP.=24.5.., (cu. in.), I would guess close to 65.8 cubes! PTO HP would be a probably be around 22/+-?

It is one tough and durable tractor! I have it's big brother, (L295DT); it has 79.3 cu. in., that I purchased new 30+ years ago, and is still runniing strong, with no issues! The engines are rated at 2800 RPM for that HP.

That was my first Kubota-a 245DT. Had a FEL and a 3 pt backhoe. Didn't even have power steering. Tougher than a bull and super simple & durable.
