Consider this. At the moment, at least in the U.S. there seem to Farmall H tractors everywhere and you can buy them cheap. Fast forward ten or fifteen years and there will be far less of them and they will be far more expensive. Over here in Australia, where there are fewer of them, they already command much higher prices than in the U.S. As for buying any F series Farmall, they are nearly impossible to find. I should also point out that I am biased in favour of saving pretty much any old tractor. It seems such a waste to turn them in Kia motor cars and such.
If you do want to turn the motor over, you can easily get hold of a Farmall H crank, on ebay if nowhere else, for a very small sum. Remove the spark plugs and inject a decent dose of thin oil. Remove the rocker cover and oil the valve rockers. Turn the motor over slowly by hand and check all valves move freely. Then, if you are fit, do what I did for the Farmall M I bought. Crank the motor over until the gauge shows oil pressure. If you have a battery, turn it over on the start. Only after this, should you replace the plugs and try to start it. That way you won't break rings if the beast fires up and runs flat out.

Experimentation, from the most complex assembly to the most simple and mundane component, is as an integral a part of any farm tractor's development
