They do sell a set of high altitude pistons, but they are not made by IH anymore.There would be a good IH part number I think, but no Firecrater brand pistons that I know of. The ones you can get will be the equivalent and just as good I would suspect. I think just going with the overbore high altitude dome pistons will get you plenty of power for any chore you may want to do. The Super or straight M either will pull the 3 bottom plow in most cases as traction will be a bigger issue than power. These are real work horse tractors. I am fairly sure you can get enough power to do what you want by this. I have worked both my old M's very hard over the years and can't complain about them one bit. The 1950 was used to pick corn with a 2 row mounted NI picker and never lacked for power. Your Super M can be taken to 450 status quite easily. Like has been said it just depends on how much you want to spend and how much power you think you need.

Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
