Setting and old farmall by ear is realy not the way to go beause by the time it starts to sound good to where you start to remove the LABORING sound you are way tofar ahead . TDC to +5 degrees at curb ideal is more then enough and at full throttel here again depending on what curve kit it has no more the 35 degrees at full throttel. but with the overbore and stephead or high alt. pistons thats tomuch even with the high test gas . As none of us know for sure what all has been done to the old girl over the years as to how much has been planed off the head or the top of the block or has the cam been changed over the years and alow for ware to the gears thinks change when and H or M is set real close to perfect when your running down the road and ya shove the throttel down there should be some poppen and light backfiren on the coast or slowsdown if you have all this removed then you have the timing to far ahead and you are hurting the bottom end pull power of the tractor.
