Thanks for that, I had found that info on another site but they only list the Continental Engine, the MF 35 we had over here had the same Standard engine as the Dexta but with the starter on the other side. Wonder if that was for Europe only. Still hopeful about British Tractor Wreckers if I can ever get an e-mail to them, keeps coming back as "Not able to deliver at this time".
Another subject, I know someone who needs a Petrol Super Major inlet/exhaust manifold as well! Talk about hens teeth at the moment. Might as well ask for the Holy Graile at the same time!!!
Hi Brian
Hows the battle going. Did you ever get hold of British tractor wreckers, or find anything else. I just had a look on an internet sale site thats Canada wide called Kijiji.
On the Ontario farm equipment page there is a whole petrol Dexta for $2450

. It looks like the same motor as the standard Fergie like yours has to me.
we have both types of Fergie standard and continental engine here. my friend up the roads got a standard T20. They are rare in Manitoba with not many around and the ones that are usually have continentals

, but hundreds of them in Ontario with the U.K motor
That super Manifold you are looking for would not happen to be the same as the 52/3 straight petrol by any chance. I might be able to find that on my spares tractor or in a wreckers But never seen a petrol super out here only the first new majors

There was a guy on U.K ebay selling a petrol Major engine from a Matbro, I wonder if that has the manifold you need if it's still listed, I've seen it twice in the last few months. It might get cheap if it comes around again

If you have had no luck on your parts, I have a couple of leads on wreckers in Ontario I could try for you. I could call Donald if you have had no luck contacting him. We have a very good long distance Phone plan so it would only be pocket change for me to try these guys for you
