looking for a source for a good block for a 62 fordson major diesel for a friend of mines tractor. any yards or sources? tractor is near tuscon az. he has not been able to locate one.
 
Hello,
I live in Oregon. There is a tractor wrecking yard up here called Farmland, they claim to have a Super Major or two in the yard. they have an internet site also and a machine shop that offers rebuilt engins/heads/clutches. Personally I find one of the phone sales people seemingly disinterested and pre ocupied, hope you do not get him if you call. Farmland is close to Salem OR. Maybe 20 minutes away. Good luck
 
Depending on the cost of an unknown used block, its worth considering a rebuild. You can get an engine rebuild kit complete(new liners piston etc) for less than £200 thats about $360 then you have a virtually new engine AND you can do it with fairly basic tools. MTF
 
Theres not much else for it but another block then. I'm sorry for anyone that has that problem. My Wallis threw a big end cap thro the side a couple of years back, fortunately below the level of the water jacket so I welded a patch right over the hole because another block was out of the question. I guess suggesting super glue or JB Weld wont help much either then MTF

He list some Majors and Super Majors on his web site. No idea what freight would be like from Saskatchewan to AZ though.
