Jim: The change you speak of probably happened at serial number 310300 when they changed to block part number 354898 R1, basically a C-123 block with real thick sleeves giving still a 3" bore, and only 113 cu in. I know my Super A will give my 130 and 140 hard run on drawbar lugging. I've also driven A's that were just as good. Bear in mind my Super A and any A's I have used all had 9.5x24 tires and 130 has 12.4x24 and 140 has 11.2x24. That 12.4 is 5" more diameter and 11.2 is about 3" more. I'm told here at YT in discussions the gear and final drive ratios never changed. Not sure I believe that, as full throttle in 1st gear they are very close in speed. As I said in earlier post, I have a single point fast hitch field cultivator 17 shanks, (modern S-tines) with gauge wheels. Those take about 1.25 hp per shank and will stop these tractors if set a bit too deep. If Super A is getting traction it will lug with the other two. Where flotation and traction are and issue the 130 and 140 have a bit of an edge. I built this cultivator in 1990, and have more than just a few hours pulling it with each tractor. It had years in the 1990s where it tilled 60 acres.

When Push Comes to Shove - by Dave Patterson. When I was a “kid” (still am to a deree) about two I guess, my parents couldn’t find me one day. They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
