try towing the tractor to get it started the first time. after an engine is rerung, the compression will check low for a while untill it gets broke in. It may never break in if the sleeves weren't honed right. Hastings used to say it was worth reringing up to .003" taper per inch of bore. I beleive half of this is more practical. as for using head gasket over, I have found its ok if you use Hylamor sealer.
