Hi all,
Just to make sure my memory isn't decieving me, I better see what everyone else thinks:
1. This has the "aftermarket" throttle linkage (though oringinal "universal" manifold; if someone has one for sale, rain or mouse moisture did it in pretty good; he doesn't have the water injector carb or tubes either, so if someone has it all together all the better!) and he's thinking he'll to keep that style. Not sure if it is from an IH power unit or Heisler though. Regardless, I think the fork and follower are the same? So after-market or NOS for orginal should work for these?
2. The eninge casting is July 1929. I presume that means that the clutch and all the way back is identical to the late 15-30 [my books don't cover the 22-36 version], or did they add more bearings in '29. On the same note, but getting way ahead, are the stencils identical? Who's stencils look the best [if not all the same] on grey? Anyone try the fenders from The Fordson House? Getting that far ahead, how about paint; I just noticed El Toro posted VanSickle's version, a bit darker than Fordson House or McCormickDeering.com.
3. I'll try Alderson, Fordson, and Rice, but anyone have an overhaul kit, how about S&P, or just sleeves? I'm thinking it would be at least .020 over after honing, and that seems like quite a bit.
4. Question 2 just got me thinking it would be nice to prime everything as I'm putting it together. What holds up well, is available in spraybomb [I hate to clean a gun that many times], and would get along with whatever is put on top (a rather variable question I know)? Even better if a close, but not perfect match to the top coat.
I'll probably cut and paste this back to my original thread [which I'm pasting all my pictures to for continuity], after a week or two, so it probably doesn't matter which is replied to right now.

Today's Featured Article - Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
