Brain, If you have the extra money then the pop ups are the way to go, as said they will give you the extra power an the tractor will run like it's never had before. I suggest you look at the cost of what the pop ups are, new an used along with new rings against the a (1) flat top piston if I read correctly what you said. Also no matter what I myself would put new rings since you have to put one set in anyway thus even out the compression, alot of people would not agree with this but because they come in sets why not use all instead of one, unless you have the old set off the other piston. Again if I read right it sounds as if the tractor has been running for a number of years on the same rings an pistons. If it hasn't had a ring job in the last couple of years I'd put all new in anyway, you will see a markeded impovememnt. I look at this way, your not out to use the tractor for any type of pulling or heavy work thus the added expense of dome pistons is not needed. I know you more than likly don't want to here this an no one can make up your mind up for you. Yes it's nice to have the power but if your never going to use it what is the sense of putting out the money for it. Only my three cents add or take away a penny or two :o)
