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...
Besides, these are old tractors and we're plowing with them for the fun of it. No sense in working the snot out of them. A Super H will pull 2-14s easily with little risk of breaking anything.
