Description
When your old International is burning oil, knocking, or just doesn't have the power it used to, it's time to think about an overhaul. This basic kit gets you most of what you need to breathe new life into that 164 cubic inch distillate engine. These 4-cylinder distillate engines with 3-1/2 inch standard bore were workhorses in their day, and with the right parts, they can be again.
What You're Getting
- Complete sleeve and seal package plus pistons and rings for a tight rebuild
- All the gaskets you need including crankshaft seals to stop those pesky leaks
- Fresh intake and exhaust valves with springs and guides for proper breathing
- Standard and overbore sizing options so you can machine to fit your block
- Pin bushings and retainers because the little stuff matters too
Built for Real Farm Work
This kit fits the 164 CID distillate engines that powered many International Harvester tractors back in the day. These were the tractors that pulled plows through tough ground, ran belt-driven equipment, and handled whatever farm work you threw at them. They weren't fancy, but they were reliable when maintained right.
Made to Last
Tru Power has been making engine rebuild parts for decades, so they know what it takes to get these old engines running right. The components are built to handle the heat and stress of hard work, whether you're running on distillate fuel or have converted to gas.
Good to Know
This is a basic kit that doesn't include bearings, so you'll want to check your rod and main bearings separately. The stepped-head pistons are designed specifically for these engines, so fitment is spot-on. If you're doing the work yourself, take your time with the valve job—it makes all the difference in how the engine runs when you're done.
