John deere 50 power block in a john deere b

Robert Fassbender · Apr 18, 2014

I have a john deere b I have a 5-3 power block I'm going to put in it from a 50. I have a need head and everything to put it in. my question is do I need to make any changes to my block or tractor to fit the new block in my tractor.

I have no idea if it will or wont work....But if it does(I hope!!),that would be one 'salty' B!

How about finding a 50 which already has a duplex carb and live hydraulics. Even optional live pto and power steering. Then install the 5-3 block on it. With some port work and a freshened up cam?
My eldest has a 50 with PS,live pto and a power-bloc. The power of a 60 in a 50 chassis.Exhaust note is a unique blend of B/50/520/530 sound with a heavier heartier thump.
