Welcome to the forum, The comments below may have good content, but be a bit too lacking in explanation.
The H is approximately the same visual size as an M, they do not have commonality at all. The H is much lighter and less powerful. The effort needed to adapt the engine to the frame, clutch/trans, and radiator is substantial Everything is possible with enough money time and effort. The reaction may have been to the idea of reducing the power from a fourty horse class to a twenty/thirty horse class tractor. Would it work? yes. Would it resell? probably for less than 1/2 of the investment. Finding the 500 bucks plus change to repair the existing engine, or trading the H engine for a rebuildable M engine is the ticket. Jimn

Some of us do not have a M to compare to our H or a H to compare to our M. We come to this forum to as questions because we believe that some of you out there will be helpful and give us the information that we need. We have inquistivie minds, we wonder what we can do with what we have to work with. Now for example, I have a Farmall H that I hauled out of a field. The heads were removed prior to its recovery, thus open exposed pistons. Well I thought, I do have a chevy straight six motor out of a 75 Nova, I wonder if I could adapt it over to the H? Or even better yet, what about a V8 350 chevy motor? To all those out there, including Hugh, some of us need to be closer than a 1/4 mile to know one tractor from an other, the good part is, someone out there already knows, and we are not afraid to ask. Try to be helpful, rather than acting all high and mighty. Thank you inadvance.

No offense, but that would be the sorriest M ever.

The blocks are NOT the same. The H block is considerably smaller than the M.

Kirk: He's obvoiusly never seen both tractors close up. One should be able to pick out at 1/4 to 1/2 mile.
