I'm still working on a 384 in similar condition or worse. Interchangeable engine with similarty to 270. About 17 years ago it stopped running because they ran Simms diesel pump uot of oil and plungers seized but they couldn't figure it out and took off head and injector lines and sold it to me for parts for my 384 and 272.I used some parts and left it outside.Recently slid it inside (braked were rusted)and realized head and manifolds had allowed water in and 3 pistons were rusted solid. Three weeks of Blaster ,ATF ,pounding with wood blocks and pushing thin hachsaw pieces down along pistons finally loosened all three . Took all 4 out and cleaned up ,replacing 4 broken rings, and rehoned cylinder liners.Engine is difficult to work on from bottom because oil pump and 2 balance shafts are under crank.The injectors loosened up by wiggling with hex wrench while prying up and didn't seem to loosen sleeves but I'm not sure the rebuilts will seal . Some of the 4/98 engines are slightly different in sleeves offered and have a o-ring listed. Northwoods tractor is best source I know of for parts and info.
