Had a post going about where to get a new head, good news is I got a head that looks good,
Here is the issue, this is a Neibers tractor and when he was getting oil in the cooling system he put stop leak in the system, well guess what? His oil system is full of stop leak including the lines that go to the oil cooler (completely clogged)

Does the frame need to be separated at the block area? It looks like the frame bolts go into the block?
Where can I get the Maintenace manual for this tractor?

The front frame on most models ends at the back of the block, so yes you will need to unbolt it from the block to remove it.
