Little Genius #8's were built from 27 to 1960 and could have come with any style of bottom. Blacksmith share bottoms, cast share and/or cast moldboards, Plow Chief, and Super Chief.
One option: the frog is the same for Plow Chief and Replaceable Shin Plow Chief, so that tells me you could cut up a solid moldboard and fit it up. Also, how 'wore out' is it? Is it something that a little welding couldn't build up?
My vote would be to keep your current bottoms. I thought the Replaceable shin Plow Chief wasn't common since I have never seen one in person, so I am surprised by how many show up on the web. And, I don't think you can beat Plow Chief when it comes to sinking into hard ground. With sharp points and sharp shares, they'll dig clear to China.

The General GG was made by the Cleveland Tractor Company (Cletrac) of Cleveland, Ohio. Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
