Vac

[mmckim90]

What kind of diesel motor or gas motor can I put in my vac besides stock engine.

that must be a large vacuum if it uses an engine!. what size is the original?

I'm betting this is a 1940 something VAC Case. We used to have one as a kid. I'm also betting that it needs an engine from a similar tractor if this one is toast. Or this one?

It will need the same little engine that factory put in it. The engine is part of the frame that holds the tractor together. I have 2 vac, and 1 va tractor. the va needs different engine, so a va or vac will fit. thats about the only choice that I know of. thanks; sonny580

WOW, they really made that vacuum part of the tractor then, it must be a special purpose tractor maybe for picking up leaves?..

Case made a model of tractor called a VAC, I suspect that is what is being referred to (given that we are in the Case section).
