I live in mid Missouri and I need to find a used or new cylider head for my Ford 1700 (2 cylinder Shibaura deisle). The head that is on the tractor now was repaired once before and I would like to replace it. I know they are expensive, but compared to a new tractor I think this is the way to go. I have searched for two days on the internet and can not find one..plz help!

Have you checked a dealer to get a parts price? My brother-in-law in Independence, MO had a cracked head on his Yanmar equipped JD950 and found a new head was reasonably priced. Industrialenginesandparts.com has Shibaura parts for Ford compact tractors so they might be a place to check. Cat brands Shibaura engines but I am only familiar with the 3 and 4 cylinders used in compactors and mini-excavators but they have a pretty simple head so I assume the 2 is just a reduced size.

Yes I have checked with a dealer in Cameron, MO. If I have to pay that amount I will,but, I am going to check out the other site that you gave. Thank you very much for your reply.
