Don't quote me on this, but I believe the 504 is an improved 340. They're essentially the same chassis and engine design.
504 adds frame rails between the torque tube and front bolster that the 340 does not have.
504 has 38" rear tires. I think the 340 has 36".
There's only 6 more HP because the little engine was wound up about as tight as it would go without flying apart on the 340... It's basically a descendant of the C113 engine found in the original A and B tractors. The fact that they doubled the HP and squeezed another 50 cubes out of it is quite impressive.
