According to the Continental literature, the water jacketed intake was designed to heat the air in cold weather.

Anecdotal information on the white tractor engine life: Today's Tractors :: View topic - White 2-155 Hercules engine ?

Maibach Tractor has the high compression pistons/sleeves. AFAIK, the tractor has the same combustion chamber design as the multifuel, just lower compression.

A rod knowck will also get louder as the engine gets warmer. My truck also makes a knock when cold; I have suspected that it was a loose valve.

Even a full rear exhaust on my bobbed deuce, there was a ton of whistle noise from under the hood with the C turbo. You will be miles ahead in noise reduction if you get the D turbo.

You'll spend more to have them recentered than it will cost to get the right wheel. Rims are $50-100 each in my area. Recentering is ~$300 each. Used tires are easy to find at truck shops.

Welcome to the site.

Will this require that the big end be resized or is this a remove and replace?

I was never able to do it runing Firefox; Explorer works fine.

It'd be great if you could quantify the strength improvement of your rod bolt kit and include a one-piece pan gasket. Should sell itself.
