Great looking tractor and a 'proper' engine. To fit this engine into something that wouldnt normally have the Perkins V8, would you need to make yourself a bellhouse adapter plate? And would the clutch be the same or again would it need to be adapted? Thanks.

[@tractoraddict1983]

An adaptor plate is required and a different clutch set up.

It would be even better if it was a 4WD as it looks like one with the tyres.

If I can come across a roadless axle, I would love to convert it. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Yes it would look awesome then it would definitely look the part then.@@tractoraddict1983
