Did you try your CaseIH dealer?

Yeah I Have a aunt that is a parts lady at our local dealer and she could not come up with any parts through them. However I did contact a company that said it may be able to put a kit together for me. Still waiting for a callback.

Is it gas or diesel? I believe (don"t quote me) that the BIG 500/600/400 and 700/800/900 shared alot of the same parts (not ablsolutly positive on the 500"s). There were more common parts on the gas/diesels on those older units too like the head gaskets. You may have to mix/match parts from other units. The bearings for the 800"s are the same as the 730 thru 870"s for example. I"ve never figured out if you can swap sleeves between the 00 series and the 30 series. Have you looked on the CNH website? Select parts search and type in 500. You may get other things with 500 model # but it should list the tractors too. I"ve also found strolling thru your local salvage yard you can compare parts with each other, be sure to check as many units as possible. (Our local yard doesn"t have any 500/600"s though). Hope this helps. Good luck. Let us know how it worked out.

Thanks for the reply, It is a diesel. I have been told that the pistons/sleeves in the case 377 CI diesel will NOT interchange with any other case engine. This must be the case, no pun intended, because parts are impossible to find. I cannot even find gaskets! I will try the cnh web site. I think that I am going to have to find decent used parts to complete this project.
