Paul, Speeking from first hand experience on the upping of HP on a M Farmall, may I tell you of my past project when I was in Tractor Shop Class when I was a senior in college at Tarleton State
University @ Stephenville,TX . My tractor one
1950 , M . All info at that time said HP on a M was 35 HP. , A Super M was 45 HP. I put a
Super Kit in this tractor, kit roughly consist of oversize sleeves,pistons, new valves and rotators,springs, bearings,ect. When finished she
had 42 HP ,dyno tested, 50 rpm shy of highidle.
for a kitted M she is salty, this project happened
my Spring semester, 1980!!!She still runs strong.
On your project GO FOR IT , Good Luck !!!
PS. When you paint, You will still use M decals
NOT .....Super M decals ,for your M will have
band brakes ,not disc brakes that true supers
have...... Good Luck!
