Dad had an H with SH sleeves and pistons and pulled a 3x14 plow. Granted it was not heavy clay soil, but then I doubt the tractor had as much umph as a regular SH.
In the ground on my Dad's farm the general rule of thumb is to subtract one bottom from what a tractor is supposed to be able to pull.
3-14s is a good load in this ground for Dad's Farmall 400 with new loaded tires and two sets of weights. Makes 'er snort pretty good from what he told me. I can't imagine my little Super H with no fluid and one set of weights is going to do much more than sit on top and spin...
