No, you did not have a 9N tractor with a Model A engine! There is no such thing. The 9N engine is completely different-distributor in front, not the middle of the head-much smaller than an A and uses the same pistons as the 239 flathead V8, etc.
Maybe you had a homebuilt or some kind of conversion using the A engine. But not a 9N.
