Ihave a 1941 M that in it's later years it's job was to run an auger transfering corn from the dry tank.It ran overnite unattended for years,Finnally sprung a leak in the radiator and it ran till it seized up. I got that M and took a 345 IH V8 out of a rusted out 1210 pickup and put in that M, It was a winter project but having put a 345 in a 560 the year before it was a lot easier.This was 3 winters ago. During the 560 refit I made 1/8in clear plastic drill template to locate the new holes in the rear engine support.The first winter after I loaned the template to guy around Joplin Mo. then it went to Indiana then eastern Ohio.Interesting that the M used the same template as the 560. I use my M, plowing . discing, just like my other tractors. I put a belt driven govenor from a massey combine on it and run it at 1800 rpm, Road speeds are about the same as my other M's as I run them at 1800 also.
