Re: Tractor serial number begin and end with star

Thanks for all the info and help I appreciate it. I can't find anything else on the block. I know the rest of the tractor is a 1963 new performance super major fomoco and enfo stamps everywhere. Do you think it's a detriment to the tractor having had a replacement 1976 Ebro 55 engine in it?

Re: Tractor serial number begin and end with star

Well I found the Ebro mark it is on the side plate you remove to see the push rods in the engine. The plate was so dirty and it was upside down I couldn't see it. So yes it's an Ebro engine.

Thanks.

Convert to live drive

Hi

I have a new performance which doesn't have live drive and I want to know if I can take a live drive box and clutch out of one of my other fordsons and replace it as a straight swap. Will my back end on the new performance match or is there anything different. Has anyone done this? Thanks

Tractor serial number begin and end with star

I have a roadless np major. The engine serial number starts and ends with a star *209485* I think it is from an Ebro super 55. Any help identifying it and the year quality of build etc appreciated
