The idea has been around for a while. There used to be a company that made adaptors to put Ford flathead V-8's in Ford 9N's and so on. If you just want to use the 413, it could probably be done. You will likely wind up with about 2 or 3 times the torque that 77 was ever meant to take in its driveline but it may take it, at least for a while. Also, even stock that 413 will wind up to three times what that Oliver was geared for unless you get a governor on it. Should really make short work of cultivating the old corn field. An in-line 6 of some sort (like a Chev 292 or Ford 300) would probably be more appropriate.
