Description
When you’ve got an old International Harvester that’s been burning oil, running rough, or just doesn’t have the power it used to, it’s time for a complete engine rebuild. A tired engine won’t pull like it should and costs you money in fuel and downtime. This comprehensive Tru-Power overhaul kit gives you everything you need to bring that 164 cubic inch 4-cylinder distillate engine back to life.
What You’re Getting
- Complete cylinder sleeves and seals that restore proper bore dimensions for tight compression
- New stepped-head pistons and ring sets engineered for the 3-1/2 inch standard bore with overbore capability
- Fresh intake and exhaust valves with springs, guides, and keepers for proper sealing
- Full gasket set including crankshaft seals to prevent leaks and maintain oil pressure
- Wrist pins, retainers, and pin bushings for smooth piston operation
Built for Real Farm Work
This kit is designed for the classic International Harvester distillate engines that powered many utility and row-crop tractors from the 1940s through 1960s. These engines were workhorses in their day, running implements, powering belt work, and handling general farm duties. The distillate fuel design made them economical to operate when fuel costs mattered just as much as they do today.
Made to Last
Tru-Power has been building engine components for agricultural applications for decades, understanding that farm engines need parts that can handle long hours and heavy loads. The sleeves are made from quality cast iron, pistons are properly heat-treated, and gaskets use materials that resist the temperature cycling and vibration that comes with tractor work.
Installation Notes
This is a complete overhaul kit that requires removing the engine from the tractor and a full teardown. You’ll want to have your crankshaft checked and bearings purchased separately as they’re not included in this kit. Most folks take this job to a machine shop for the precision work, but having all the major components in one kit saves time and ensures everything fits together properly.
