Ok. finally got the old girl Case 800 running with new LP heads and newer/better manifolds (gas).
Here"s the PRoblem... now that its quieter I can hear a pretty good rattle/knocking/clatter sound in the lower end. Its not real loud but can be heard especially on the right side not as loud on the left. Its mainly near the front of the engine near #1. I pulled the wires off the plugs as I read in an ooold post that that can help determine if its a rod knock. The noise did not change at all with the spark plugs disabled. The soundis also still there with an increase in speed (just sounds like a faster rattle/clatter). I did drain the oil. The 1st oil to come out was kinda watery/sluggy mix and is somewhat black/grayish in color with a little gas smell. It had cracked heads and I knew it was getting some water in the oil that way and do not know how long the previous owner ran it that way. I pulled the pan and pulled #1 and #4 caps off. The picture is from the #1. #4 looks a little better (less grooves).
What does a rod or main bearing knock sound like? Would bad cam bearings make that sound?

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
