    301 rear main seal rubber plugs

    I typically take a welding rod a little smaller than the internal diameter of the plug and lube it up good and start them in the groove as I am installing the cap. The more you push the cap into place the more I push on the rods. When you get the cap close to being seated I lightly tap on the...

    M Farmall

    I am just guessing but, the shaft and the housing wouldn't weight more than 30-35 lbs.

    C-301 combine engine

    If my memory serves me correctly I was thinking it was about 500 pounds, complete engine and manifolds without flywheel or backing plate.

    What is the track like at Tunica ? More specifically what kind of tires work the best in the 5500 8 MPH classes and the 5500 4 MPH class. Thank you

    Lighten a 656? (656 vs 560 vs 460)

    If you are running a normally aspirated engine and shooting for the 4500 class, I would stick with a 460, they are much easier to get into the 4500 and still have a lot of moveable weight. The 460 that I work on weights 4200 with heavy radial tires and a 225 lb. driver and most of the time we...

    Farmall 560 weight

    The rear cover I had was steel and could have easily been 25 lbs. lighter, I had aluminum front axle with Pinto rack and pinion, aluminum frame rails, steering pedestal and the radiator cast section was replaces with an angle iron framework. I could have saved on the following as well, weld on...

    Farmall 560 weight

    My old 560 puller weighed 4800 with me on it, at the time I was 150 Lbs, I wish I could still say that !! LOL It had aluminum front end but, steel wheels, all steel weight brackets, 18.4-38 Goodrich on steel and any unecessary gears and shafts removed. There are some 560's running now with RD...

    Rack and Pinion steering

    I have used manual rack and pinion steering off a Pinto once and worked out good, some people use the Mustang II steering, about any manual steering from a salvage yard can work if you use your imagination. Jegs and Summit sell some nice units if you want to spend the cash, they also sell the...

    IH 560 diesel big bore head gasket

    As long as this is a NA application you would probably be okay with using a stock 301 Diesel head gasket from a combine because they have a bigger bore, but you would have to compare the bore after pulling the sleeves and match this to the stock 301 head gasket. I dont't think you could go any...
