Well TxJim I had a brain fart on the injection pump side but the position of the pump is still different and it makes the throttle a bear to do.
As for the JD 2840 in a JD 3020. You do not need an adapter plate. You do have to drill out some of the holes to a larger size but you don't need a plate. I know where there are two of these conversions at. Two brothers did one each. The one brother had a JD 2840 that eat the Hi-lo clutch pack and destroyed the housing. He had a JD 3020 with a bad motor. He married the two together. Made a neat chore tractor. His brother liked it so well that he took a gas JD 3020 a salvaged JD 2840 motor and made himself one the next year. I am not sure what they did on the clutch/flywheel but they solved it.
Either way The 4230 motor is not a direct bolt together deal to switch the motor into a JD 3020.
Brother should have shut the noisy tractor off as soon as he heard it making engine noise. Lesson in life but we all have done them before and will more than likely do some thing like it again.

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.
