Hugh, I did NOT say or even imply that you were stupid. I was merely trying to explain why you probably did not notice much increase in power between the H, SH, 300. The info I gave you except for the 300, which I don't have did not come from my (expletive deleted) books, it is in the specs at the end of the operator's manual for each tractor. I agree that the big jump is from the H to the Super H, but if you increase ground speed, that will eliminate part of the increase in HP, which means you cannot necessarily pull a larger implement. I'm not contradicting anything you said about the W4/H because other than the engine, there were few similarities between the two tractors. If IH would have left the gears alone, I am sure you would have noticed a 21%+ power increase between the H and Super H. I could tell the difference in my dad's H even after an overhaul, as it got pretty bad before it got worked on. I use books as a source of information that I can't get otherwise. I own five letter series Farmalls and am fully capable of separating the "wheat from the chaff" in those books. Sometimes they are right, sometimes not. I scan them before I buy, I have put several back on the shelf, the ones I have are pretty accurate. I know you gear the tractor to the load you are pulling, I'm not stupid either. We plowed with our H in second, disk and other finish implements were usually pulled in 3rd. 4th was seldom used. With a Super H geared the same as an H, I am sure we could have either increased the size of the finishing implements, or increased the speed to 4th a lot of the time. The preceding sentence is what I meant to say in my rambling other garbage.
