TT-(Moderator) 1,129 #2 Posted August 30, 2010 You might be able to find a complete NOS engine, but unless it has a catastrophic failure or the cylinder has already been bored to the largest possible size, common practice is to rebuild the current engine. The sad part is - unless you can do most of the work yourself, you'll be spending as much (or more) on just the engine as you'd pay for another complete tractor. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
