    That is a really old cylinder head, the four posts sticking out are probably valve guides.

    My dad could have looked at that and told EXACTLY what tractor that came off of.
    I am only guessing:



    edit: its cast iron

    It's non-ferrous.

    Seriously, I'd say cylinder head, too.

    It looks like it's off of a Massey Ferguson. The paint is the same shad of red/pink that is on our baler.

    It's money waiting to be made! Please be sure to tell us the weight when you find out. Weren't you Hunter the one that was trying to get a ton? That should help considerably!
