41 JD B Head

[Joey H]

I have a 1941 JD B with a bad head and was looking for a different one or wondering if I could cross this with a different casting number? The head i have is a B1784R and am having a hard time finding a good used one. Any ideas would be extremely helpful!! Thanks

The heads from 1941 to 1952 are all the same on B's. At least 3 different casting numbers though. The latest one you also need the oil feed washer for the tappets as it is different shape for the oil pressure and drain back holes.

Hi Kent! How are you doing?

That started that you sent works like a charm!

With the snow today (5 inches) it may have a chance to work tomorrow!

Thanks again!

There is a giant hole in the bottom side of it. The rest of the motor is in good shape except for the head and I wanna make sure I buy the right head to replace it.
