I finally got her back together! Sheesh, that project took awhile. I wish I could've got new sleeves, I didn't really know how bad they where really worn until I started honing them. I hate having to nickel and dime everything anymore, but losing my job soon doesn't help. But it seems the new rings have seated, we will find out tomorrow when I hook up the old 6.5 ft double gang disc, and take care of the garden plot, its about all she'll pull.

We have an 8N too. Good tractor. We use it as a lawn mower. My dad took the exhaust manifold off and I had to braze it where they usually crack where the pipe connects.

Thanks!!! I didn't know it even posted once, much less more. All I saw was a error message, LOL. The temp sensor was made from copper fittings by the p.o. It appears the block has the .090 cast sleeves, (its not the original, its a industrial engine).
She's ugly as sin,but she'll do a honest days work.

Don't the 8n blocks use sleeves?   Nothing like a fresh set of sleeves, pistons, and rings to make a sweet runner...

Is that a temperature sender I see in your old upper hose? That looks like a good possibility for the Hesse Hornet question asked by Judge earlier...

( I deleted your extra posts...lol)

It looks like my little willys is going to have some garage company for a little bit while. The old Ford 8n is finally going to get some much needed rings :) :)
