Odis, Big John is as lost as a goose in a snow storm on this point. The First factory IH tractors were on the Stage II series, Super Ms. This LP system is like the one on the SW6 in Guys Fays Book. The one with the crosswise tank with the valves faceing rearward. The Stage III Super Ms had a different tank though. It was a longwise tank, with the valves being a monovalve unit at the rear of the tank at the 11:00 position (while sitting in the seat).
The first true LP heads were not produced untill the Number series. That might be where Big John is comming from and on that I will yeild to that point.
Procuction number are sketchy at best. IH didn't keep #s on the fuel types only total # of tractors made. We do know that there were 500 of the SMTA, LPs made they were the ones that were sent to Lubbock, and San Angelo, Texas to the LP Tank Co. to be completed.
The SMTA tractor is a Stage III tractor it didn't matter if it was fuled with Gas, DSL,or LP. Hope this helps.
A good non-running tractor , If me start at $350 and work your way up. Should be bought at about $500 to $700. If you get it bought I have the mane of a place where you can get new LP diaphrams for the carb and vaporizer.
Later,
John A.
