I can't find the post now, but a short time back, there was a post of Farmall 300 or 350 horsepower being less than the International 300 or 350 horsepower of the same fuel. The reason for the higher horsepower for the International versions is that all of the 300 and 350 Internationals turned 2000 rpm and all of the 300 and 350 Farmalls only turned 1750 rpm. All of these are CHP from Nebraska tests. F300gas #538 35.87db hp, 39.84belt hp, F300LPG #573 36.54db hp, 39.66belt hp, I300gas #539 39.48db hp, 42.84belt hp, I300LPG #574 40.09db hp, 44.40belt hp, F350diesel #609 36.76db hp, 40.23belt hp, F350gas #611 38.53db hp, 42.44belt hp, F350LPG #622 40.02db hp, 42.73belt hp, I350diesel #610 40.99db hp, 44.10belt hp, I350gas #615 40.57db hp, 44.94belt hp, I350LPG #916 42.87db hp, 46.68belt hp. The most probable reason for this is that most Farmalls operated at high constant load settings for long periodas of time and therefore were limited to lower rpm for longer engine life whereas the International utility tractors usually operated at varing power settings and were seldom used at full power for long periods of time. IHC later used this same idea on the 656 gear drive vs hydrostatic drive, whereas the 656 gear drives turned 1800rpm and the 656 hydrostatic drives turned 2300rpm. However, in this case the lower rpm was not to just conserve engine life, but, the higher rpm was used to give the 656 hydro approximately the same horsepower as the gear drive since the hydrostatic drive system itself was not nearly as efficient as a gear drive from a hp standpoint.

Women and Tractors - Tractor Engine Repair - by Teri Burkholder. One of the great things about working on a tractor engine with your other half is that you know what he is thinking of at all times and can anticipate his every move and his next thought of what he will do. With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I’m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I’ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I’ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
