The Tractor has stepped or dome pistons. I will probably not work the tractor appreciably as we have other stuff to get dirty but like to make good sounds and show it to friends. Mostly it's a challenge. Can I check for bore taper using ring end gap measurements from the bottom of the stroke to the top of the stroke. I get your point about the effects of taper. I thought I knew a little about engine building but I never considered taper since all my other projects were Automotive and followed engine machining. Is a sleeve change easy enough or is it hard to pull the old ones and push the new ones back in on this engine?

If this tractor was originally a distillate engine, was it a super M as I thought or was the Super only for those higher compression engines? Also, are there differences between a distillate carb and a gasoline carb?

Another question.. Most of the M tractors I have seen were without fenders including ours and also our 400. Did people just remove these and loose them or was this an option?
