Well. I'm going to put my back against the wall here. I am sure you are very fond of your R. I would be if I had it. Are you going to work it like it worked 50 years ago or just every once in a while blow the cobs out of her? If you fire her up every once in awhile for nostagic reasons I would hone the cylinders grind the valves check the bearings and slap it back together. It will run great for what you need it for. "IF" you are going to use it as a primary tractor and your living depends on it. Go through it while it is down and do everything the expensive way, as your livelyhood depends on it. Most likely you are not working it hard nor will it ever be again, a whole lot more than a fun, useful diversion. IF it were mine I wouldn't bother with the bore.
