I also have a SL1603 and have had fits getting info . The books claim this model comes with a K723 engine . This indicates that it is a 72MMX72MM (bore and stroke) with 3 cylinders . I looked at the block and mine says 713 . Small difference but significant if I need to change pistons or rings . What engine do you fellas have ?
Also how strong are your front hubs ? Mine has bearings inside and out . The hub had spacers wrapped around the bearings so it would fit better . When they slipped out I noticed that the bearings would wobble . I had to build up the bearing space with a type of JB weld .If I turn too sharply they would lay over and wear more . It still works but requires attention moreso than it should . My front end loader is Stallion brand . It is severly oversized for this tractor .Half a scoop is more than enough . It looks like a Viet Nam rebuild . ....

The only info I have is from the book you sold me . The 1210 Ford which is "supposed" to be the same machine has the 723 engine . They are specific about all the other engines as far as the bore being the same as the stroke . If you are sure that the bore is 71 do you know the stroke ? Could this be some kind of experimental engine ? It is my understanding that they sold tractors to Ford/New Holland and the 1603 was the Ford 1210 . Everything that I have found in the books are exactly the same EXCEPT for the engine . I would appreciate any help you could give me in this matter . ....
