    I just sold my 8N 60 HP V-8 to a fella in Florida. Hated to see it go, but what do you do with a hotrod tractor?! My 60 was putting out about 75 HP when I got through with it. Looked good with Offy aluminum finned heads (Ebay purchase) and dual exhaust. Installed a Sherman to gear it down...

    GP/GPO oil filter body--pressure
