Hello Tim, I have a 68 4020 powershift with 4000 hours,it uses oil, and has blow by.Ive had to put in a gallon of 15w40 a day when its worked hard.What would you recommend for a good manufacture of a overhaul kit.Im going to get the engine out of the tractor in a couple of weeks, to get it to the machine shop.Id love to bring it to you since you seem to be the JD expert, but Im about 7 hours away in western Michigan. Thank-You!!!

Your tractor came with pencils.
Reliance is a good brand O/H kit but there are others.
