    Posted: 01 Mar 2013 at 5:37pm
Got word that three of the four valve pocket areas in the head from my Conti F163, are cracked. And the head is warped .004 to boot. Anyone know where I can find another head? Internet searching leads me to rebuild kits, but no replacement heads. I've stopped repairing everything till I find out if the engine is going to live again or not. Rumor is I can run it for short bursts, but I'm blowing combustion into the cooling system and overheating the engine. Otherwise I may have a ACC-40 for sale, in need of TLC

Call 573-826-9065 and ask for Ross. This is in central Mo but he fixes a lot of cracked tractor heads and is reasonable. He will at least can give you some honest ideas. Leon
