My neighbor has a B with a bad block and is looking for a replacement engine. I told him I thought the engine out of anA, superA, 100 thru 140 would work. I know the supers had hyd and there is the water pump issue. Anything else that would cause problems?

Bill: Any engine from an A, B, SA, SA1, 100, 130, 140, C, SC, 200, 230 and 240 will bolt up. Mike is right, not many SA had water pump from factory, however a good many have it today. You can use a water pump on your B, finding a thermostat and top couplings from engine to rad, will be a bit of a chalange, but not impossible. There are folks running them without thermostats.

Another item that might require changing is water pump and fan assembly from a 140 or 240. They both have fan hub, automotive type water pump. I know the fan and shroud arrangment is a bit different on my 140 from the 130. I don't know that it is enough different, that it wont match up.

Number 3, don't expect to install a C-123 engine and have C-123 performance without changing breather. Air intake on C-123 is almost twice the size of C-113, I'm talking actual air stack.

Not many, if any, Super A's had waterpumps. I think that started with the Super A1 (late 1954)

Geeze, there was just an A block on ebay for sale for $40 and nobody bid. You could find it on ebay if you did an advance search for ended items. Just type in "Farmall block". It was in Maryland, and the seller wanted it picked up (would not ship) - which is probably why nobody bid.
On a related topic, I bought a 140 block on ebay a few weeks ago for $100, point being, a good rebuildable block with no cracks is probably going to run your pal about $100 to $150. mike

I know you can put in a C or a A engine.

I think you can even put a Farmall C engine in it without to much problem. Maybe even a Super C.
