Fordson Super Major Engine?

I have a Timberjack log skidder, and was told that it had a Fordson Super Major engine in it. Engine needs an overhaul, and I'm wondering if a Super Major overhaul kit will work? The serial number on the engine is S360817. If a fordson kit from this site will not work, does anyone know where I could order a rebuild kit for it?
Thanks for your help.

Should add, Ford is stamped right on the motor, and it is a 4 cylinder.

If its a Fordson Major/Super Major engine, you might like to checkout "The Fordson Tractor Pages" at "fordsontractorpages.nl" Then look at both the "New Major" and "Ford & Fordson conversion" forums. TSG.

howdy do a search for agrilineproducts.ie you will be pleasantly surprised at prices and availability. my order for a FSM came by FedEx and shipping was not that bad at all. and by all means visit fordsontractorpages for expert information on the E1A engine family. brownsmule in North Carolina

looking at the S/N It would be a 1960 Super major by yt"s S/N listing IF it is a 220. Are there any casting numbers visible on the engine? Maybe something in the 2700 range? I"m thinking you have a late 60"s early 70"s vintage skidder. That would be a 258 cu in I think. Maybe someone more knowledgeable than me about these will chime in.How about a model # of the skidder?
