Deuce bearing source

[GoHot229]

I ran some searches and found that Memphis Equiptment carries them acording to a member, though somewhat spendy for the complete thing, rods and mains both. Along the way, recently on an unrelated thread/post, someone here mentioned while refering to the multifuel that it (motor) was nothing more than a 'White Tractor' motor. Searching for white tractors on the web gave mixed results, places Called White Tractor, but as a Company rather than a brand, the other stuff seemed to relate to some tractor called a White, but were talking antique stuff like Oliver tractors and different post-war stuff if I was reading/browsing right. What gives?... is there a 'White' tractor? Back in Utah a fiew years back we had David Brown tractors, that were refered to as 'Whites'. Could this be the same? Yea I'm thinking like many of you would, that if this 'White Tractor' company exists, and the multifuel motors and bearings are the same, it might be an alternative to the higher prices elsewhere? or not, they may be more, but it is worth an ask from you guys out there....?........

How are those prices compared to the likes of Memphis? Wonder if the headgaskets are the latest design? Now I'm curious about the pistons and their compression ratio.

When I checked Memphis a couple of months ago the mains where ~$350 a set and the rods where $26 ea. They where alot lower than the above prices.

It's great to have another source. Thanks for posting the link. I have it bookmarked.

It is my understanding that the pistons are different on the AG engines than on the Deuce.

Pistons are conventional diesel pistons with a slightly depressed top. The compression ratio is about 17 to 1 if I recall correctly. I am pretty sure you will find the MF stroke is longer than the White engine.

Also, the reason you find the White engine mentioned around antique DBrown and Oliver tractors is it was originally a Continental engine that was used in those tractors. Continental engines were used just about everywhere. They were the Briggs and Stratton of water cooled engines. Ferguson, Oliver, Brown, Clarke, Lincoln... all used Continental engines. Why own an engine factory when someone like Continental was around? White bought Oliver, Brown, and a bunch of others to form the company they are today.
