      The funk conversion ones are rare, they allow a 95 hp i6 or a 100hp flathead v8 to be installed in place of the origional flathead 4 cylinder

      ​@frederickjeremy This Is A Custom Installed Engine!!! The 8n 9n 2n Only Came With 4 Cylinder Engine!!!!
      The Hood On This Tractor Has Been Modified!!! It's Sitting Higher And The Panel At The Dash Is Home Made!!!
      This IS NOT A "Rare" Tractor Because Ford Never Installed This Engine!!! This Is A Tractor That Has Been Modified By The Owner!!!

    4:06 When pulling the grain wagon with our 8N, I would put my feet on the tierods and put some pressure on them when going down the road in high gear, it helped keep the play out of the front wheels.
