[Farmall] F-20 Connecting Rod Bearing Inserts

[Daniel W. Oehmke]

Hi guys - 

Trying to figure out what size bearing inserts to get for my F20
connecting rods.  

My father-in-law took the crank in and the rod journals were
out-of-round, so they turned them down to 2.230.

Am not sure I'm reading the "sizes & capacities" in the I&T manual
correctly.  There's an entry for "crankshaft journal" w/a footnote that
ball bearings are used.  So this must be for the mains.  Then there's an
entry of 2.2495 for "crankpin diameter."  Is this for the connecting rod
journals?

What size bearing inserts would I need?  Also, are there shims for the
caps?

Thanks!

Subject: [Farmall] WANTED: H4 magneto for Farmall A or 55 Hay Baler

A friend of mine needs an H4 mag for his Model 55 Hay Baler.  I believe
it is the same as the Farmall A.  It is supposed to be an H4, but his
has
a J4, which I believe is what is supposed to be used on Farmall Cubs. 
Would be willing to trade.  I have been told there is a 30-degree and a
10-degree impulse available for the gas motor mags; he wants the
30-degree one.  Oh, and he also needs the clamp bracket that mounts it
to
the motor, as the one he has is some homemade piece of garbage.  Let me
know.
