does 244 use the same crank, cam, head, ect as the 226 engine? or will those parts interchange from the 226 in to the 244?

I have a listing here which indicates that the 226 was engine model F226 while the 244 version was model A244. I have no idea as to what the letters F and A mean, I always thought the F stood for flathead on the Continentals but that's probably wrong. This list here says that the 226 was used in the MH 101 & 102 Senior gas models while the 244 was used in the 102 Senior distillate (low grade fuel) model. I'm guessing the basic engines to be the same EXCEPT for the cylinder bore size. The 226 haas a 3 5/16" bore while the larger 244 has a 3 7/16" bore, thus the difference in engine displacement, 226 vs 244. They both have the same stroke, 4 3/8". The compression ratio on the 226 gas version is 6:1 while the compression ratio for the 244 is only 4.8:1 so I would guess the larger engine to have a different cylinder head resulting in the lower compression ratio. The distillate version probably has a different manifold and carburetor but I'd suspect all the engine internals (other than the cylinder head and pistons/rings) would interchange. I know the three versions of the 4 cylinder flatheads (124, 140, and 162) are identical other than the cylinder bore size.

Mostly the same 600 series flathead engine. 226 bore was 3 5/16" w/a 6.23 comp. ratio. 244 bore
was 3 7/16" w/a 6.9 -to-1 comp. ratio, these
were more common with a magneto, many burning
low-grade fuel(kerosene), w/cast pistons-early.
