Case 580B Engine Rebuild Question

I have a Case 580B engine that is getting tired and want to rebuild it this fall/winter. I would like the challenge of doing myself but am in need of myself.

1. Can I do an in-frame rebuild? or do I need to split the tractor.
2. Where can I get a book or resource to walk me through doing this rebuild. I own all the manuals for this unit but wanted something a bit more step by step.
3. Where is the best place to get parts. I live in Hillsdale Michigan 49242.

I have not rebuilt an engine before but feel up to it after lots of other repairs on my equipment. Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

Yes, you can do an in-frame rebuild. However, that will depend on the condition of the crankshaft. If it's anymore than .002 inches out-of-round, you will need to pull the motor to have the crankshaft machined. You are well advised to purchase the Case Service Manual for the 580B (form # 9-72088) from a Case industrial dealer, MacDonald in South Bend, IN. Phone (574) 271-0800. While the manual is not cheap, it's one of the best investments you will ever make if you intend to do most of your own service work.
I live in southwestern Michigan with many years of Case equipment ownership (including a 580B) and Case technician repair experience. If you have any questions, give me a shout.
