Jay: Probably 75% or more of all gas engine farm tractors ever built had sleeves. For example all IH gas tractors with exception of Cubs, from 1939 through to 1963 had sleeves. I'm thinking IH always used sleeves going way back to the early 1900, however I'm not up to date on those oldies. IH put a non sleeved C-153 in the 504 in 1963. That was the beginning of the end of sleeves in gas engines for them. It was also the beginning of the end of gas engines in IH tractors. Europe went diesel in the 50s. By the mid 60s Canada and Austrailia were 90% diesel. Since coming to YT, one of the things I find hard to believe, is the numbers of 60s, 70s and 80s gas tractors in the USA, particularly larger 6 cylinder tractors. I've only ever seen one 6 cylinder gas Farmall in my entire life, and IH started using those in 1958. I've seen thousands of 6 cylinder IH diesels, bought my first one in 1962.
