440 rebuild question

Post by NYDeere »

I am working on a Deere sled with a reed style KEC440/22 engine with 2 very scored pistons, rings and cylinders. I do have a set of cylinders with good pistons and rings from a KEC 440/21 engine. Can I put the parts from the series 21 engine on to the series 22 engine? Thanks, NYDEERE
