I purchased an excellent 656 gas tractor with just 895 origional hours but the engine is bad stuck and has water in the #3 and #4 cylinders. It sat many years with the exhaust uncovered after the owner passed away. I also now have aquired a 1959 diesel 560 that runs like a top with virtually no blowby and the previous owner claims to have had it rebuilt years back. What would be involved in putting the D282 in the 656? Looks like the front motor plate would have to change, although I might be able to drill holes in the frame rails, and the rear motor plate would be different. What flywheel and starter would I have to use? Would I benefit from a later model Standadyne injection pump over the Roosamaster pump on there now, or could the earlier pump be turned up for more fuel and or rpm? The 656 is a 1968 model. Probably need a diesel return fuel line. What else am I overlooking and would anybody else consider doing this? Would this change the value of the 656 tractor or should I rebuild the gas motor? I appreciate all your replies!
