[AJD] Late A cylinder block vs Early 60 Cylinder block???

[greg at theoldtractorcompany.com]

I believe so. I know we have used a 60 block on a late A
I always just try to match casting #'s though to be safe

>>> A few questions about JD Cylinder Block compatibility:
>>> 
>>> Some background Data:
>>> 
>>> 1.) Removing Cylinder Block from JD A Serial # 654037
>>> 
>>> 2.) Friend Needs Cylinder Block for Early 60
>>> 
>>> 3.) Parts catalog states Cylinder Block for A's Serial # (648000-    )
>>> is
>>> AA5052R = A3703R or A4320R (Sub for AA4373R)
>>> 
>>> 4.) Parts Catalog states Cylinder Block for all 60's is AA5052R =
>>> A4320R
>>> 
>>> 5.) The above states that a 60 block can be used on a late A.
>>> 
>>> 6.) But the Late A block isn't mentioned as useable on the 60's
>>> 
>>> Questions:
>>> 
>>> a.) Is there a difference in the blocks such that a Late A Block
>>> (A3703R)
>>> cannot be used in a 60?
>>> b.) If Yes, what are(is) the difference(s)?
>>> c.) Does a specific head have to be used with each block?
>>> 
>>> Vely confusing!
