Ford Jubilee
I posted on the Heavy Machinery forum earlier but thought a tractor specific forum may be better. My dad passed away about a month ago and I inherited his Ford Jubilee. I talked to the previously owner and was told it had a diesel engine from another ford swapped in.

"I swapped the motor from a ford na621 and put it in the 8n tractor, the diesel takes a stronger starter"

Currently the starter is missing. Anyway to id the which starter I will need? Here are some pictures.

It ran a couple of years ago and worked well at that time.

Sorry for the loss of your dad. As far as a starter, the four cylinder diesel engine from that era left the factory equipped with a 12 volt system while gas engines still used a 6 volt system. According to the master parts catalog, the part number for a diesel starter is 2900804. Here is a link for a used starter so you have an idea what it looks like.http://https://www.tractorpartsasap.com/starter-ford-dd-style-3136-used-ford-2900804-403616.html
From your pictures, it also looks like you may be missing the air cleaner as well. Interesting conversion, you will have to take it easy on the tractor as the Jubilee has a weaker rear axle and the diesel will have more grunt to apply to the rear axle.
