Well its about time to do an overhaul. Finally saved up enough. So I have been reading these forums last few years trying to absorb info, to learn. Hopefully some of you can help me out before I start this winter.
'55 Farmall 200 C123 Engine
1. After I get block, head, and crank ready for the machine shop; what should be the minimal work done as needed? Cleaned, magnafluxed, head work as needed?
2. What type of bearings should I get? I plan on working this tractor. Best to get machine shop to get them?
3. Low ash oil and no eth-gas 89 good for the engine? Been reading about forged vs cast pistons on here.. Don't think you could find forged anymore.
Thanks for any help/advice. This will be my first overhaul.
