I wonder why they did that??? If you get into WWII history most of the Italian military hardware was considered to be pretty poor and most far outdated when the war started. They didn't really have the ability to improve very much as the war progressed. So I'm guessing if they used surplus Italian military engines they were not surplus from WWII. After the war all military equipment/hardware became the property of the allies. So most of the captured equipment was sold for scrap to help pay for the cost of the war. So I'm betting those engines were from equipment designed and built after the war was over?
Our own military did that for years. Used purpose designed engines and when a piece of equipment was updated sold off those engines in the supply system. Consequently those engines were not used in civilian applications so there were no parts available one they did wind up in other hands.

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.
