    Is it possible to switch a side mount 8N block to a front mount setup?

    He used the front mount distributor. Did he also have to swap the camshaft?

    Is it possible to switch a side mount 8N block to a front mount setup?

    I had a 40 with a 51 engine. I think just the generator brackets were made. It was complete when I bought it.

    Installing a turbocharger on a 9 n ford

    The 9N is almost a 2 liter maybe the low rpm demand would turn the choke point into just right. There are online calculators that will get you close. I used one from a Mopar man. Forget his site. It got me close when scavenging for parts when I set up a little 352 tow rig. When I was looking for...

    Two Ford 9n’s

    Hello from down the road. Does your 40' have the transmission dip stick forward of the fill plug in the shift cover?

    Installing a turbocharger on a 9 n ford

    I have not searched the article the late Dell mentioned. However I am a fan of belt driven power al low RPM's. Never blown a flathead myself, I just watch the fellows with money do it. Seems the best way to equally atomize fuel and overcome the choke points. Anyone running a 9/2N with the 454...

    1950-51 8N whim purchase **OH BOY! IM IN TROUBLE**

    Your cast iron carb might be able to be freed up soaking in distilled vinegar. If you are set on running that aluminum carburetor you would be best off tearing I down and drilling all the passages to match the cast iron one. I did that to my aluminum carb'd 40 with a borrowed cast iron...

    Funk 8N Water Pump.....?

    Referring to Jim's post, keep the housing, bearing and press true. As I recall the ones I have done were fairly flat and thick housings. If you get ahold of an odd shaped pump with a thin housing you may be better off going to someone who deals with that pump. Chances are they'll remember how to...

    Funk 8N Water Pump.....?

    Have a bunch of sockets on hand. I haven't done my 226 yet but have done several others. It should be the same type seal/sleve combo that presses in. I stack the sockets within .010" of the seals natural resting place. Some offer a tool. Take some time and measure everything to get it back where...

    Pulled starter out, to see broken bendix gear in half

    #24 photo makes it easy to see how if the tractor was rocking with the nose pointed down could work that extra starter drive into the flywheel. Remember, the bell housing is part of the transmission case. See photo in post #5. EDIT: Bell housing doesn't swap out. I think it took me about three...

    Pulled starter out, to see broken bendix gear in half

    I went through this with a 40 9N with a loader. I had a strong magnet to pick up to Bendix but never could find a hole or angle big enough for it to come through. I spent more time trying to avoid spitting the tractor than actually splitting it. Only needed about 3" for the gear to fall out.

    Newer rims on a 2N with original ceters

    I bought some from Tucker about 2022 or so. All the weld beads needed to be ground down to fit the centers. If your interested take a look in the search bar for photos and outcome.

    8N Funk On Facebook Marketplace

    Town is in Texas. Still has the fan shroud. What is that box by the battery laying at a 45 degree angle? AND what carburetor is that? Thanks https://www.facebook.com/share/1AU8LHKDNL/
