Stan: My Super A has it's original engine. The tractor serial number is 336977 making it a 1953 model. The engine serial number is 338597. The block part number is 354898 R1. I did have the head off my Super A about 10 years ago and it does have the thick sleeves with 3" bore. I had to replace a head gasket. The guy who helped me with this and I did take the oil pan off at same time to remove a dent in it. From what we saw, top and bottom, our opinion this engine had never been rebuilt. The tractor has presurized thermosyphon cooling, radiator is original, fan is original. Carb and distributor have been rebuilt. The tractor does have 9.5x24 tires. My 130 and 140 have 12.4x24 and 11.2x24 respectively. Where traction is not a problem that little SA will still give 130 and 140 a run for the money on a drawbar pull. I have a 17 tooth S tine 1 point hitch field cultivator. It will stop any of these tractors if you drop it. Super A will lug that in 2nd gear and do it just as easy as 130 and 140. And yes you can hear the kettle boil when you shut her down from that. So much for C-123 and the extra horse power. My 130 and 140 both have C-123 stamped on block, bearing out what you say. To clarify, which of 3", 3-1/8" and 3-1/4 piston sleeve set will fit these various blocks?

All these conditions can be signals that your unit is in need of a tune up. Ok, so what is involved in a tune up? You say, swap plugs and file the points....now tha
