Actually, it IS very likely that he killed it if he blindly stuck a carburetor on it and ran the pi$$ out of it.
This is one of those touchy 6-cylinder, high-compression, high-RPM engines that tractor vet is always talking about. If he didn't run 93 octane fuel, he roasted the engine. If he didn't use low ash oil, he roasted the engine. If he didn't maintain the ignition and keep the timing dead nuts on, he roasted the engine.
If in fact the LP engine is higher compression in the 6-cylinders like everyone is saying, then it was even touchier than normal when it was converted to gas.
Gaston if you have designs on fixing the engine with the level of knowledge you've displayed thus far, you are setting yourself up for more disappointment. You can't just slap new sleeves and pistons in and expect it to hold up.
