Hi everybody
I am looking for a Hercules IXB engine, already asked Jerry Biro and Landis Zimmerman but they don't have any.
Can anybody help me please ?
I am also interested to know what is the difference between IXB-3 and IXB-5 ?
Thank you very much for any help in this matter !

Merry Xmas to you all !

The number of timing gears/ Oliver/Cletrac never used the IXB 5 engines. Do you have a rebuildable core or any part now or any IX engine?

I do not have an engine at all. The problem is that a friend of mine owns a tractor (Swiss brand) and its original IXB5 was removed in the early 60's and replaced by a 3cyl Perkins diesel engine. He wants to restore the tractor and therefor is looking for a Hercules IXB.
