Just "what" is the correct head torque for a B Farmall. I have searched and read back post that quote from 65 to 80 lbs. I know my book says 65 lbs. I still have some "seeps" @ 65 lbs. Thanks for any input you can give.

The correct number is 80. Get your head gasket from Case-IH rather than aftermarket, there can be some differences in sealing. I used plain old caulking silicone on my C, same engine, just use a very thin coat, you don't want that stuff any where except between the head and block.

I had the same problem with an (a) same engine as the (b). you can take it up to 75 ft lbs, IH revised that tourque number, if you have a reprint manual it may say 65. the c-113 is hard to get to seal up, mine was still leaking at 75 ft lbs, I removed the head again and used the permatex copper spray and that solved the problem.
