Greetings,

I'm not too sure, but I think the first 100 horsepower tractor made by IH would be the Farmall 1206. They're nice tractors, but they're a little older.

Here is a brief overview...

Farmall 666
don't know too much, 65 horsepower, 312 cubic inch engine (I think), 10 speeds forward, 2 speeds reverse

Farmall Hydro 70
same as Farmall 666, except hydrostatic drive

Farmall 766
slightly smaller engine than the Farmall 966, approximately 80 horsepower, same transmission speeds

Farmall 966
diesel 414 cubic inch engine ("D-414"), 6 cylinder, 105 horsepower, 16 speeds forward, 8 speeds reverse, variable speed with low/high range, optional torque amplifier, hydraulic DynaLife clutch, hydraulic brakes, optional 540/1000 RPM power take-off, optional single/dual remotes, Category II three-point hitch, optional differential lock

Farmall Hydro 100
equivalent to the 966, except it has a hydrostatic drive

Farmall 1066
identical to the 966, with the exception of a "DT-414" engine (turbo), optional Category III three-point hitch

Farmall 1466
identical to the 966 and 1066, with the exception of a larger engine, "DT-436", 130 horsepower, Category III three-point hitch is standard,

Farmall 1566
identical to the 1466, with the exception of a different gear drive which offers 12 speeds forward, 6 speeds reverse, intended for more horsepower out in the field

Now, the '86 series tractors are virtually identical, except that the cab was moved 18 inches forward, and some minor changes were made in the '86 series that didn't exist in the '66 series. Most have the same engine, almost the exact same everything.

Farmall 886 is equivalent to the Farmall 766,
Farmall 986 is equivalent to the Farmall 966,
Farmall 1086 is equivalent to the Farmall 1086,
Farmall 1486 is equivalent to the Farmall 1486,
Farmall 1586 is equivalent to the Farmall 1586,

Farmall 686
65 horspower, 312 cubic inch engine, 6 cylinder, almost the same as the Farmall 666, slightly different design, slightly larger engine

Farmall 786
watered down version of the Farmall 886, less features than the Farmall 886

If you want my personal opinion, my father and I own a Farmall 966 and Farmall 1468. We recently sold a Farmall 686 and we're beginning to regret that move. I like the Farmall 966 because you don't have the turbocharged engine, and that's less to worry about. The '66 series tractors are excellent machines, and I prefer those over the '86 series.

I hope that helps a little... hopefully that answers some of your questions - I think I got all of that information right. ;-)
