Engine Overhaul Kit for International Harvester H and HV Series Tractors

Description

When your trusty old H series starts blowing smoke or losing compression, it’s time to give that engine the rebuild it deserves. After decades of hauling hay, cultivating fields, and running that old buzz saw, these workhorses have earned a proper overhaul. This comprehensive kit gets your International Harvester running like it did when it first rolled off the assembly line back in the day.

What You’re Getting

• Everything you need for a complete rebuild except bearings – sleeves, pistons, rings, valves, and all gaskets
• Stepped-head high compression pistons that’ll give you better power and efficiency than the original flat-tops
• Both standard and overbore options included so you can handle whatever the cylinder bore measurements tell you
• Complete valve train components – new valves, springs, guides, and keepers for smooth operation
• Professional-grade Tru-Power components that meet or exceed original specifications

Built for Real Farm Work

This kit is designed specifically for the H and HV series tractors that International Harvester built from the 1940s through the 1950s. These were the go-to tractors for row-crop farming, with their 152 cubic inch gas engines providing reliable power for cultivating, planting, and light field work. Whether you’re restoring a family heirloom or getting a work tractor back into service, this overhaul kit has what you need.

Made to Last

Tru-Power has been building engine components for farm equipment rebuilds for decades, and they understand what these old engines need to run strong for another generation. The cylinder sleeves are precision-machined for proper fit, the pistons are cast for durability, and the gasket set includes modern materials that seal better than the originals ever did.

Good to Know

This is a complete overhaul kit that requires full engine disassembly – not a weekend project unless you’re very experienced with engine work. You’ll need to source main and rod bearings separately based on your crankshaft measurements. Take your time with the measurements and don’t be afraid to have the machine work done professionally if needed – a good rebuild should last another 50 years.
