We sent the cylnder head manifold and carbuerator to Gary and he made it a totally different tractor. Ron always wanted to take it to an NATPA pull but got sick and never was able to do so. I agree that the allis and h Farmalls would make it difficult for a Super C to stay with them. [Reply]   [No Email]

Ron took it to his shop and I tore it down and found the problem and had a new sleeve made my Paul Marlett. I didnt even know of Gary Baker at that time. I believe it had 4020 John Deere liners in it. I rebuilt the Block and stuck the head back on it. Eventually I pulled the head and drove it to Garys a year later and he redone the head manifold and built a good carbuerator for it. It was a total different tractor then. Very good running tractor. I miss seeing it pull and going to pulls with my Friend Ron. He was a great guy and would do anything for anybody. [Reply]  [No Email]
