Funk Aircraft Company of Coffeyville, Kansas started making and selling the kits. Delbert Heusinkveld was installing the 100 HP Ford FlatHead V8 Engine in Ford N series tractors. Funk started to make and sell the Kits for the V8 Convertion also. About 5000 V6 Kits where sold but only around 100-200 V8 Kits where sold also some very rare Overhead valve V6 kits. The numbers are estimated due to production records lost in a fire. Many kits where installed at the dealer as OE. Production stoped 1953

@wrawson Needless to say An original 8N Funk Ford Flathead V8 Conversion are extremly rare. The conversion in this video is a repro the 8N tractor is a 1949 Ford. The V8 flathead is from (I belief if memory serves me) A 1953 Ford car. My father did the conversion by scratch except for the Transmission mounting plate. All other modifications where enginered and made by my Father. I will try to post some Pictures or video of the completed tractor soon.

@KevMods 8N Funk V8 conversion. The Type of conversion done on this Ford Tractor is a replication of the 8N Funk V8. For others that want to know. Starting in 1948. Ford 8N Tractor owners wanted to use a 3 bottom plow instead of a 2 bottom plow but the 8N did not have enough power. Ollie Glover of the Glover Equipment Company in Milford, Illinois started using Fords 95HP Industrial V6 Engine in Ford N series Tractors.

@KevMods i dont see how doing a simple doughnut is hurting the motor, he doesnt have the throttle pinned wide open. so go to hell.
