If you are talking about a industrial flathead 251 I dont think there is. You could contact Dan Shavers at 204-467-2605 they would know for sure.Otherwise you could put in a straight 6 with a automatic tranny.

Anyone know when putting on new tires do they need to be stretched so they go on easier?

This is a 52 narrow there is alot of slop when you move the front tire.At first we thought it was the bearings in the wheel .So we took a closer look and all the movement is in the roller bearings on the main shaft that goes threw the body .I dont think there should be this much play.

I know on my brothers narrow gauge there are two track tensioners on the rear of the machine that will loosen the track you will have jack the machine up. What kind of belting are you using to replace the old stuff ?(we need to do this too)

I,m looking for some tires for a narrow gauge I noticed the that the rear tires are 5.00 16t and are mortorcycle tires and the rest are 4.50 16t plain tread two of the tires say goodyear(canada)and are new the other 4 are all original and everywhere I call says that they have no listing for such a tire. Is it alright to run different size tires on the rear than the rest
