Just about any tractor with a drawbar and PTO can be used for both raking hay and tedding with pull type rake & tedder.
I would be more concerned with had a decent travel speed, so check speeds and gear spacing, eg we have an old W-4, 5 speed, 4th too slow to rake in unless wide open, 5th road gear... versus almost idling with other diesel tractors with 8 speed boxes.
The 350 might be 10-speed with T/A, so assuming that 4th (9th) is about 5-6 MPH you should be fine. 8N's aren't really a usable tractor now a days, but if geared right, would pull a rake and run a tedder.

The small two rotor tedders only need 15 PTO to run.
