I saw the post from Ben about the H head stud oops! I have posted this some time ago, and than pushed the 10-20 to the back corner of the shed. I have never come up with a good method for a fix. I purched this 10-20 as a none running barn find. Got it running and drove it around the yard ran good. Parked near shed and went in for lunch. came out to start and #3 was water locked. PO had machined and ported head for over size valves I think for "pulling". Valve seats cut into water jacket. I had the head fixed and tested no leaks. When I removed head, the gasket was siliconed on both sides. Found 6 or so head studs with poor threads, so I sealed and replaced them. When torquing 2 or 3 studs do not hold in block. I am now thinking PO broke studs in block and did poor job retaping. What would you guys do????? oldiron29

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
