45 hp. Take the H block, and have 350 sleeves installed. Requires block boring, but still uses a stock IH sleeve. It will still run with full water and will be just as good as stock. It will be a 3-5/8 sleeved bore, which makes 175ci. Take the H head, and have it checked to see how thick the plate is. This will tell you about how much you can mill off and still be safe to use. I would recomend being conservative, machine .020 off it and put it together. Should make 43-45 hp with pump gas and a M carb. No stroking involved.
A 350 piston can be stroked a little. It would be the same kind of upgrade, spec wise as the M&W strokers for the M-450. 4.75 stroke, have the tops recut to fit the head, and you would have a nice workable H with a bit more, and still use IH parts when it comes time for rebuilding. You would be looking at running higher octane fuel with a stroker, unless you was to build the stroker, then set a kerosine head on it, then you should be able to run 87 in it. You should be able to build something like this for 2000 or less. JMHO, Hope this helps. ChadS

We traveled for six and a half hours to our destination - a little country town with a population of no more then one hundred and fifty people (57 of them being children under the age of thirteen). We arrived hoping to meet up with a man we knew had over one
