to 30 cracked block

[Midmud]

I have a ferguson to 30 with a z129 engine with a cracked block. I heard this is a standard problem with the z129. My question: Will a z134 bolt into the to 30 tractor, and did the z134 have the same problem of cracking blocks? Help!

dunno about the engine swap, but I do know that if your crack is the 'standard' Ferguson crack, then it may be able to be fixed by bolting the sides of the engine together.

Check out the yesterday's tractors web site for details.

I guess I was lucky as I've had a 1952 TO30 for over 25 years and never had any issues.
