Description
When you’re dealing with white smoke from the exhaust, coolant loss, or that telltale milky oil that means your head gasket has given up the ghost, you need a reliable replacement that’ll seal up tight and keep your old Ford running strong. This head gasket is built specifically for the flathead engines in Ford 2N, 8N, and 9N tractors—the workhorses that built American agriculture.
What You’re Getting
- All-soft material construction except for steel fire rings around each cylinder bore
- Precision-cut design that matches original Ford specifications for proper sealing
- High-temperature resistant materials that handle the heat cycles of gas engine operation
- Steel fire rings provide critical protection around combustion chambers where heat and pressure are highest
Built for Real Farm Work
This gasket fits Ford 2N, 9N, and 8N tractors with the classic flathead four-cylinder gas engines. Whether you’re running a brush hog, pulling a disc, or just puttering around the farm, these tractors have been getting work done for decades and deserve a quality gasket that’ll keep them running for decades more.
Made to Last
The combination of soft gasket material and steel fire rings gives you the best of both worlds—flexibility to seal against minor surface imperfections while providing rigid protection where combustion pressures are most intense. This design has been proven on countless rebuilds and will handle the thermal stress of stop-and-go farm work.
Good to Know
Before installation, make sure both the head and block surfaces are clean and flat—any warping or deep scratches will cause problems no matter how good your gasket is. The fire rings need to seat properly in their grooves, so take your time during assembly. If you’re doing the job yourself, a straight edge and feeler gauge will help you check for warpage.
