They are not the same but the parts from either will fit the other. As a matter of fact, after all the WD replacement blocks were used up A-C furnished the WD-45 blocks as factory replacements for both tractors. So...just because a particular tractor has a block with no side plate does not guarantee its a 226 C.I.D.. Of course there are lots of "sleeper" WDs out there with WD blocks and 45 innards, too. LOL

Our '41 WC had a dealer installed replacement block installed back in the 50s that was the WD45 type, but it had all stock WC internals in it. Kip
