could you check on the pistons and rings lavoy and give me a price
i am thinking of installing a non jd engine like a v8 if this does not work, anyone have anypics of doing this ????

hey all think my old 1965 1010c dozer gas engine has gone south i'm wondering what engines will bolt up to my bell housing it is a manual with no reverser, i have a line on a 1966 450 gas which so far looks to be the same block, any thoughts on this.....i do not know what exactly happened but i thin...

yes those settings are accurate ot least for my 1010 crawler 4 cyl gas 1965

had the same problem with mine, turned out to be stuck distributor weights throwing the timing off, did you look at these ?
