Keith: Tell us a bit more about the BD308 IH engine. My first inclination would British Diesel indicated by the BD. Then my next question would be, which British built IH did the BD308 fit? Is it 4 or 6 cylinder? My next thought is, there were IH tractors, same chassis as 560 except they had factory 3 point hitch same rear chassis as Super BMD or B-450, and built in Austrailia. Those were fitted with direct start, glow plug diesels. Given the fact these were built after the days of 560, and coupled with the fact Austrailia is part of the British Empire, very likely they used a British Diesel. Just a thought, I'm not certain I'm correct. If it was the engine of that Austrailian tractor, very likely it would bolt up to a 560. Be ready for some modifications though.
There are four other possible engines that will work with some modification, those being the 310, 312, 358 and 360.
