You are luckier than I. Mine put two pistons out through the block, after 11000 hours of cranking out 100 hp. I think the block breaking incident could have been avoided. Tractor was on blower at silo,young lad heard noise, shut blower,etc. down, left tractor on idle and went for help. I arrived on scene to find one piston on ground and one hanging through block and a small fire. I still beleive this was one of the most efficient tractors I ever owned. It is the only tractor that I ever tampered with the rated hp. Bought the 560 in 62, couldnt justify an 806 one year later for more hp, Next best work with what you have.
