Check the date code on the larger castings. A Super H will have an X, Y or Z (corresponding to '52, '53 or '54) as the last character in most/all date codes. Characters earlier in the alphabet correspond to earlier, non-Super years. Look also for "C164" cast in the upper right side of the block near the back. This also indicates a Super H. All Super H's have disk brakes. I suppose someone could have retrofitted drum brakes, but it would be a difficult task - more costly than simply replacing disk brake parts. However it's also possible someone married an H rear end with a Super H front - would then account for drum brakes. Again a quick inspection of casting date codes would reveal whether this occurred. Also note: Early production Super H's (about 11,000 units) were built with belly pump hydraulics. And the live pump was a delete option on the later production tractors. So not having a live pump does not necessarily mean a tractor is not a Super H!
