I think it is on the high side, price wise - maybe he is fishing for a offer..?
I always thought the hood needed to be extended to fit the V8 engine. This one appears to use the original hood. Does anyone know were there adaptor made that did not need a longer hood?

I'd want that extra 35hp to be running
through a more capable drive train. Those
conversions always remind me of that quip
about an alligator mouth and a mockingbird

its ok, not so radical that its going to shell out the drive train if used with discretion , but with any of these conversions, the operator has to remember he has 60 hp on a tractor where the whole rest of it is designed for half that, power has to be added slowly and just enough to do the job, at about 3/4 throttle under full load its time for a bigger tractor and if you are at idle, and slam the throttle full open and dump the clutch, parts are going to fly
The V8 engines, 60 HP or otherwise, were rated at higher RPM for automotive use, rendering them only marginally useful for tractor applications.
The V8 60 is not much larger than the 120 CI 9/2/8N engine. I doubt that it makes more torque at 1,800 RPM than does the N engine, perhaps less.
