Well I have H and M parts and operator manuals dated jan. 1940 and they all show kerosene and distillate heads and parts and distillate and kerosene used the same fuel set ups. Think they dropped the kerosene in august 1940 in favor of distillate, but still offered a kerosene attachment # 58452D starting h serial # 41405 up for buyers that wanted it. If you notice in later parts books fuel shut off valve 55474 D or DX with nut thats listed for serial # 15744 up says gasoline or fuel tank needle valve. Thats because they would work in both tanks if after serial # 15743. and was used in the big tank for distillate and kerosene serial # 15744 to 50865. It was used in the small tank 50866 up. Before the 15744 serial break a different fuel shut off was used in the big tank, Thats because the outlet hole is a different size. Later fuel bowls won't screw into the early original big fuel tank unless adapter fitting were used before serial # 15744. Most if not all early fuel set ups have probably been changed by now. IH offered changeover parts because of vaper lock and fire hazard when some implements were used. You fellows can think what you want but I say early ones were made with the fuel bowl in the small tank. I can even remember a couple still like that when I was a pup.

The General GG was made by the Cleveland Tractor Company (Cletrac) of Cleveland, Ohio. Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
