I am in the process right now, just waiting to get some help to get front bolster on tractor. I think I will have to remove some metal but I will know soon and take pictures. Back end is pretty straight forward you will need a pilot bearing pressed into your original flywheel-- I needed to cut 1 1/4" off of drive shaft then bolt up simple.
Now for the front, you will see a few ways to do this mentioned of this and other forums.
What I did---140 radiator and upper hose---140 themostat housing and radiator brace---140 fan--on original 153 water pump. 140/240 lower radiator elbow.
I will take so photos when I get the bolster back on.
One thing I ran into today was the front fuel tank support where it bolts to the back of the block on the Super "C" the bolt holes are a little norrow to use the support, so I had to drill it to make it match the width 4 1/8" holes on the back of the C-153.
Things have not gone to bad so far and it seems if I throw enough money at it I can make it work but it sure AIN'T BEEN CHEAP.
I am sure there are others who have done it other ways and not had to spend so much, this one has been hard on my wallet and easy on my brain.

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.
