I was just looking at two HGs a guy has for sale. One has a Wisconsin 2 cylinder TF engine and the other has a Chevette engine. As for the latter, the Chevette engine was bad enough in its original home. I've got a several side-photos of the Bombardier half tracks installed on an 8N. Uses rubber tires for bogies. I could scan and send to you, or - if you have access to these books - it's on page 111 - THE BIG BOOK OF FARM TRACTORS, Voyageur Press, 2001, ISBN 0-89658-471-2 Another book shows the Blackhawk halftrack on an 8N that looks almost the same - in FARM TRACTORS - A LIVING HISTORY, 1995, Motorbooks International, ISBN 0-7603-0030-5. In that setup, it states the bogies are 5" X 15" implement tires, track pads are 13" or 16" with 1" grousers. Track width adjustable to 52", 56", or 60" centers. As far as the guy that I know that has the setup - he got it all in pieces, never seen it installed - probably wants to sell it.
