Gas or Diesel? if it is a gas a Gleaner "E" combine engine will fit right in. they are selling for about $500-$1000 for a good running one. Does the tractor run? Might be easier and faster to try to JB weld it or something like that. ------------- Unless your are the lead horse the scenery never changes!! |

| Seems head and crank are each worth almost $1000 each too. So that puts your core at near $4000. |
