Kelly,
Here is my out look for my operation, one tractor was good the M, two was better the M and 450, but once all the gas was paid for three became the anwser, the M 450 and 756 (which is a diesel).
This year it paid off haveing three tractors along with Dads Three his being a 970 Case, 1105 Massey and 160 Same. While makeing hay the Case stayed on the diskbine, Same on the round baler, Massey loaded bales with its loader, 756 was on the TMR mixer or the square baler, 450 on the rake and the M bucked wagons.
All was fine til the 450 blew a coil while a friend was rakeing and I was round baleing so we ran home and got the M and started rakein again.

SO for you I would think that buying another tractor would be the answer, or once the 300 is running I would sell the 460 and get a 560, or a 656 diesel. That 460 has got to be worth about $3500 with all of the spruceing up youv'e done to it.

An engine swap for you while you can probely do it would be a long tedious project and in the end it may hurt the tractors value as well as makeing it harder to work on.
