Yes, ol'George, I do have a lot to consider before I proceed any further. The tractor doesn't even have a PTO or mowing deck, and it needs a lot more than just engine work to get up to a good standard. If I proceed as I have planned, then I have put a lot of new parts into a engine rebuild, that as you have pointed out, may not run as well for as long as I would like. Furthermore, what am I going to do with this tractor when I am finished the project? I want to work it for sure and that will require attachments. The only benefit I have derived from buying this tractor so far is the pleasure of working on it and learning a little bit about the history of the IH company (which is all pretty cool in itself). Maybe all I end up with this summer is a rebuilt engine that I can deploy at some future point? Yes, lots for me to think about. Thanks for your feedback.
