Howdy guys, I am new to this site, but not new to tractors. I have a Ford 4400 loader/tractor that has a blown head gasket and some blow-by. After removing the head and inspecting the pistons and cylinder, I found the pistons are marked '040'. This tells me the cylinders have been honed .040 over original specs. The local dealer is being a total jerk, and not wanting to give me the information I need, instead they want me to bring it to them for repairs. I know that sometimes there are members of a board who work for dealerships, and have access to the information I need. What I need to know is:
What are the specs for the cylinder bore?
What are the over-size limits for headland pistons?
What would I be looking at as far as prices for cylinder sleeves, pistons, rings, gaskets?
Thanks guys.
