    Head bolt torque?

    What is the recomended torque for 22-36 head bolts? I am more than a little leery of overstressing 84 year old head bolts, and would like to stay on the safe side. Also, there is no sign of grey paint, even under the coating of grease and dirt on this tractor. Is it possible it came from the...

    Valve seats

    As some of you know, I am going to rebuild the TO20 engine. What about the valve seats? Will the new valves that comes with the kit fit the valve seats as it should? Is there any issue regarding leaded gas vs unleaded gas that are used today?
