The Ford Barn

I had a dream of a T with a 8N engine. Really not that way out if they
can put V8s and V12 Lincolns in tractors why not. Easy part machining
tractor crank to the planetary, machining hogs head. I think the hard
part would be fabbing the T pan so it would contain its own oil. Although
it was a dream, but my Ford tractor is whisper quiet, run her hard all
day no viabrations just sweet. If that fellow on utube can cut a T engine
in half with a common hack saw and run it anything can be done!
I have all machinery necessary for this kind of operation, if I could find a
junk 8N and planetary.......

That dream may actually be a "Night Mare", but I have seen more than one T with V8 engines in them. Good luck, I will stay with getting a little more HP out of a standard T engine.
