Hi, All,

are engine kits available for the 144ci diesel? I didn't see on this site or elsewhere.

thanks!

I don't think the 144 diesel used in the 601, 2000 4 cylinder Fords is the same as the one in a Dexta.

It is not.

That is not the correct kit.

The 63 - 65 144 CI diesel is a four cylinder.

Overhaul parts are made from unobtainium.

so don't bite on a tractor with a seized 144, eh?

My pal Kenny had one rebuilt.
The crank was good so just new bearings.
The old machinest we use was able to get OS pistons and rings for it.
As I understood it that engine might have been built in Italy and was used in many applications over there.
He was able to get the parts.

Perhaps, if the price is right.

One could always install a 172 CI diesel or convert it to gasoline.
