    That's a beautiful little tractor.
    Neat story on the history of M&W too!

    I had a M&W piston set & governor on my Farmall 400. Loved it!

    My dad rebuilt his Super W6 engine in 1964 using M&W pistons and governor parts. Jump that tractor form 44 horsepower to somewhere north of 56 horsepower. Went from pulling 3 -14's to 4 -14's. Really good tractor. We figured he put 38,000 hours on that tractor before it was retired in 1987.

    M&W definitely made tractors come to life.

    • @cdjhyoung
      @cdjhyoung Před rokem +3

      A M&W kit took advantage of the huge improvement in the quality of gasoline after WW II. Early versions of these IH tractors were produced with compression ratios around 4.5 to 1. Some of these kits took that ratio to 6.5:1 but required 85 octane fuel. That much compression change could add 50% or more horse power to one of these tractors.

      @@cdjhyoung that's for sure. My Grandfather always said he was so glad when WW2 was over and he could get gas for the H and he never did run kerosene in it again as it didn't have the power. When we overhauled the tractors through the years we always used the fire crater pistons to make them more powerful. Thanks for sharing.

    I love the W-4, which is now becoming a highly collectable tractor, due the fact that is the Standard Tread version of the Farmall H and shares many common parts.

    When I was a kid, the M was a field tractor, now it would be classed as a chore tractor. Some of the large tractors of today are more powerful than the powerplants that generated electricity in small towns in my parents' youth.

    IH made a rolling chassis. M&W made a tractor out of it.

    • @LanceStoddard
      @LanceStoddard Před 8 dny

      When they were designed, Gasoline was 70 octane. As the fuel got better, IH introduced their own upgrade kits as well.

      Yes & it looks to be the repro of the original style IH muffler used on the tractors built '49 & after. I have the non chromed one on my H & really like the looks & sound of it. Regards!
