Marty: After all is said and done, why not just put the engine back to factory specs. I've been running offset Farmalls now close to 50 years. I've heard all the super dupper upgrades. My 130 was rebuilt a number of years, I've forgotten the details, however at the time, to listen to the professional rebuilder, you'd swear my 130 was going to out pull my 300 or 560. I have no idea what is in there, however I can tell you it will not run away from my SA or 140 on a pull, never did. I've seen this tried so many times in my lifetime, rebuilders and sales folks will create all kinds of hype on how much power they can give an A, SA, 100, 130 or 140. I've yet to see an exceptional one. They were all very good from the factory. Since that time some folks have been very good at relieving owners of their dollars. Bout the biggest difference I see.
