301 eng swap

I think ive got a 301 eng out of a G Gleaner bought, I am wanting to put this in a D19, I wanted to know about what all I will have to have to make this work, my biggest concern is rear plate and flywheel. Also the engine is painted orange and I thought combine engs were gray or black, and the pump is on rh side of eng like the 190 tractors and I thought combines had them on lh side of eng but wasnt sure, nver had any Gleaners on the farm so Im not real familiar with them. Anyway if anybody has any info that would be great.

Very little info from me but my M2 301 engine is orange.

Thanks for the input, so the 262 flywheel will bolt up to the 301? and if it does willthe D19 clutch hold up ok to the extra hp? I'm not planing on working the tractor that hard, probably just play around with 4 bottom plow, maybe a 14ft disc and some bush hog work, and the plowing and discing would be just for play not planning on farming with it.

the 262 flywheel and clutch will bolt right on the 301 but the 301 tractor fly wheel and clutch will also work but may have to grind in bell housing a little for clearence of 190 clutch and flywheel.

If you use the 301 adaptor plate use the 190 flywheel, then the starter will fit flywheel. MACK
So does that mean the 262 plate will work on 301?

I don't have my original D19D block as somebody borrowed it to take the head off and I never got it back, but I measured a combine engine that was the same as a D19 gas and it is 3" shorter than the 301 for just the block.  I don't have the front cover for the D19 so I can't compare it to the 301, but I think its a little bit shorter, too.  The problem w/steering rod is that the injection pump drive is in the way, plus is there room for the D19 steering unit on that side of the engine? 

The steering issue is my biggest concern now I think, but wiyhout having the eng here and bolted up I wont know for sure what I will have to do. I think I will go ahead and buy the eng cause its cheap enough that if it dont work i can get my money back out of it pretty easy. Slade I my get ahold of you on some of thos parts, when is a good time to call

That figures you would have what he needs Slade, he lives 15 miles from me.....lol

hows the eng swap going any pics

Kinda slow between work and getting equip ready to go to the field, but I do have the rails getting extended, the 301 is 3" longer, I have had it bolted to tractor looks good in there. I decided to go with hydrostatic steering i have removed input and cyl from front steering unit to make room for the 301. The combine rear plate bolt up to tactor only 1 hole dont line up. The tractor flywheel is 1/2" smaller than combine flywheel but the starter bendix is same size and same # of teeth and it looks like the starter hole is the same distance from center of crank so I would like to use the 301 starter if I can, anybody have any thoughts on this let me know. as far as pics Ill try to get acouple on here wwhen I get the rails back and the eng in again.

Can you use the hydraulic steering from a 190 and the cylinder on the front axel? I don't have an extra but this might be an option.

mattb you should post some pics of yours

I have all the parts for hyd steering, hand pump, cyl, steering arm and pivot like the 190's have and as I said in the earlier post i have removed cyl and input shaft from original steering unit and have plates to bolt on to cover holes. My plan is to mount the orig pump on eng to supply pwr to steering and by plating the frt unit I can use that as my resivor and not have to tie in to the tractor hyd.
