My Super H was built about 1-7-1954 according to FARMALL records. The engine serial number is 2800 numbers higher than the tractor chassis serial number. Date codes on the block & head castings confirm this being late Nov. & Dec. '53. The 358067-R1 is the raw block casting number, which is the same part number My C-164 has. I know the C-164 can have thin-wall sleeves & over-size pistons installed to make 3-9/16" bore for 169 cid. but it is still a C-164. The 300/350 parts book I have shows that a 300/350 (C-169 or C-175 should have a 364265-R1 block or 362743-R1. The C-164 is located right above the oil filter and is raised cast lettering, kinda hard to read.... Without actually seeing it I'd say You probably actually have a C-164 because of the 358067-R1 casting number, probably the original engine installed in that Super H at FARMALL. There was some coring changes done in the block castings to allow larger diameter sleeves & pistons to be installed in the 300/350's. You couldn't put over-size sleeves in either engine without boring the block, and if the cores shifted enough, sometimes You ran out of iron to machine, scrapping the block. Both IHC Fire-Crater Pistons and M&W normally didn't offer over-sized pistons for the number series tractors, just the letter series.
