The plan this winter is to update the scv couplers to ISO and fix the rock shaft leak. then I will put the intercooler back on from the 404 engine. I plan to use it one more fall like that to make sure I found all the leaks then paint it next winter. Here are some picture from this fall some have nothing to do w/ the tractor but what the heck.
Don't know a whole lot about the technical differences between the intercooler for a 20 series versus one for a later model tractor with a factory 466. IIRC, you mentioned something about the ports being considerably smaller on the older setup. If the older setup "chokes" the airflow too much, the intercooler may hurt you as much or more than it helps. A 466 w/out an aftercooler will run all day set at 200 hp and never hurt it as long as your radiator can handle it.(Unless you're pulling it to the max all day with no let up, in that case it would probably be wise to have the proper one.( ie., OEM for a 466) A good pyro will let you know) Unless you want more power than that, or maybe the aftercooler has a "cool" factor, l probably wouldn't mess with it.
Just my two cents!
