The F-162 in my '44 MH 101 blew up. Can I put all my parts on an F-163 short block out of a welder??

The big difference is the crankshaft has a different thrust bearing and crankshaft So the block and head is also different. Send me and e-mail and I will try to help you. J>

I have swapped them,on most of the welder engines the crankshaft isn't drilled for a pilot bearing, the small nose has to be cut off the clutch shaft and a pilot bearing machined to fit in the flywheel similar to the 44's.Also the water pump might not center the fan in the radiator.

Would a F-185 engine fit your needs?
If so, I have a complete engine and lots of new spare parts..FREE!!
This is not a scam.
