Hello Dave: See you have been playing with a nice M an Orchard B. Have a question, have you seen any the B Perkins running about around your country?

I have a few scrap B's here in the US and would like to convert one to a Perkins Oil Burner Special. Would use it here on the Crop Farm. I wonder if any escaped to Canada?

The closest thing here in Canada would be a D-272. I have never heard of a Perkins powered B comming to Canada. There are no D-270's here either that I know of. But then I haven't been looking either.

i believe, tho I may be wrong, that Fred told me there was a Perkins p3 D272 in a boneyard near him. I think that if you take the motor and the converter ring then it will bolt rite into a B. I have both here so I will check tomorrow for you and try to put up some pictures.
