Depends on tractor design- if engine is not bolted direct to transmission bellhousing or torque tube then engine can be adjusted and align output shaft- as Jeep engines in F-12/F14. Massey-Harris , WC Allis, F20/F30 had frame with engine set in them- engine was not a stressed member so could be replaced with minimal mounting problems. Some Olivers have a "tub" from tranny area to front end to handle weight- engine sat in tub, engine swaps between Buda, Waukesaw, Cummins done often enough. Pick right tractor frame with a big 4 cylinder and a V8 or V6 can be tucked in relatively easy. Get a unit construction tractor and few engines can be bolted on without extras- Funk Ford conversion works but extras and light trans may not make most practical tractor. M Farmall with Ford 390 truck governed to 1600/2000 rpm has been done- adapters needed but suppoed to be relatively straight forward- gives a 75+ HP engine that tranny can handle mostly. Archives may have some threads on this one. RN
