Adrain: I'll try not to confuse this. Super A-I were built during the entire production run of Super A, from 1947 until 1954. Super A-1 were built in 1954 after serial number 356001 and there were only 1957 built. I understand, and I'm not certain if this is accurate, only two of those 1957 tractors were Super A-1-I.
All Super A's prior to 356001 came from factory with C-113 engine, however all of those engines can be changed to C-123 or 3-1/8" bore.
Mike is right on the quickest way to spot a Super A-1 or A-1-I, because of the higher radiator, the fuel tank is close to 2-1/2" above the touch control unit. Regular Super A is only about 1/2" clearence between tank and touch control.
Good luck if you acquire a Super A-1-I, you'll indeed have a very rare tractor even if more than two were built. By the way, on a Super A-1 or A-1-I, the model number stamped with engine serial number will FMC and the numbers will be same sequence as Super C. First Super A-1, serial number 356001 had FMC engine number 206628. This information comes from IH records, not Tractor Data or what someone wrote in a book for profit rather than accuracy.
