It will work but gonna take some original 180 Allis parts to get it in there, very interesting as it has a water cooled exhaust manifold as to your questions-1 the exhaust manifold appears to be water cooled and will need an original 180 manifold-2, shouldn't need the lift pump 3 like Ed said the injector pump is prolly stopped at 1850 rpm,s , 4 looks like a hydraulic pump will bolt on the place it should go and the front plate looks as it will bolt in the frame rails too, , - - I AM VERY INTERESTED IN THE BELLHOUSING AND ENGINE FLYWHEEL BOLTED TO THE REAR OF THE ENGINE IF IT BECOMES FOR SALE !

I just bought this 2900 engine. The guy told me it was on a generator inside a (college) building. He said the meter showed less than 100 hours. I am planning on putting it in a 180 that was my Dad's.

I have a few questions:

I have never seen an exhaust manifold like the one on this engine. It appears (to me) that it may have been to, either, preheat the coolant or to cool the exhaust. My assumption is that it would have to be changed to use in a tractor?

It appears that the engine has a lift pump (second picture). Would it be beneficial to leave the lift pump on it when installing it in the tractor?

Will the injection pump work in a tractor or will it need to be changed.

In the last picture, it appears that this engine has provisions for a hydraulic pump. Do you think I will still have to change the front cover?

I expect to have to change the flywheel (and use the tractor housing) and oil pan. What else will I need to change to adapt this engine to a tractor?
