There is nobody building 3 inch strokers for H farmall's. 2 inches is darn near too much, and would never try it again. Be conservative, build something that will run for a long time. An engine like your describing, may have 1, maybe two seasons of running time before it self destructs. Watch Merfelds cranks,, but at that stroke, Id be leary of any of them anyways. It wont be oil pressure lubricated at 6.25 stroke,, it will be like the oliver engines,, a splash lube system. The reason is,, you build up a crank that much, you cut thru the oil passage holes in the crank, that happens at 5-3/4 stroke, but is still oil pressure lubricated,, You would be surprized that 90+hp in a H farmall is plenty,, for a H farmall. Thats solid 4th gear with 15.5's cut tires, stock H tranny, and what ever rpm you want to run. If your building a H to out pull a Oliver 77,, etc etc,, dont try to out speed them,, out power them,,, it can be done. I have a H farmall that put most hotter 77's on the trailer in its day. ChadS
