I'm converting my perkins ad3.152 engine from a rope seal setup to a lip seal setup. I got a new short block and oil pan, both of which are supposed to fit me 205 industrial, however, on the old oil pan in the front there are six bolt holes either threaded or not for how the front axle support and nose cone attach.
The new setup is different by one spot. If you look at the front of the engine with the pan on, the upper right hole is different. The old setup had the hole and mating surface on the pan, the new one the pan stops short of this upper right hole and mating surface. The hole is in the engine block and there is a space between the engine block and where the front axle support mates.
It looks like there is supposed to be a large block shim or spacer that goes in there, perhaps for another model tractor. I was wondering what this peice is called so I can maybe get on for my tractor (if it fits) or get an idea of how to make something. Anyone know?
