engine size

Hi Folks, I was looking though the parts catalog online here and didn't realize there are differnt engine sizes. I knew there was a high compression and low. I guess the question is, how can you tell what engine I guy could have? Also My father came out today and got to see the tractor for the first time, we studied the whole thing out (he has been farming and being his own mechanic forever it seems). It looks as if some one has done some overhauling on the tractor at least 500-1000 hours ago. The rod bearings look excellent and so does the piston pins. The Sleeves arn't in to bad of shape, I misjudge a little is what he said, not to bad of a groove, but the piston that I finally got out, we took the rings off and put them in the sleeve to find ring gap. IT WAS BAD! I don't know what its suppose to be, but it was almost a 1/4". I don't know if the rust ate all of that away, or what happend. We started guessing that who ever tore the engine down got the wrong rings. ??? But the sleeve that had the rust is surface rust. We knifed at it and found no pits, it looks like it can be honed out easily. If you would know where I can find the engine size and what the ring gap is or where I can find it and learn something id be happy to know. May just need rings and a valve job! "I Hope"

Thanks fellers Derek
