I know I've asked before: "Is an H powerful enough to run a 22" x 38" McD thresher?". I like to ask this question wherever I go. I ask again here, because of the ever changing balance of answers. The over-all response is a 60-40 split in favor of the H being a bit underpowered due to a slightly shorter piston throw. I've decided to revisit this topic due to some info I just acquired. It's a McD Threshers brochure from 1942. In the back, under specifications, it states the power required to operate the 22 x 38 thresher with wind stacker, self feeder & weigher is 20 - 30 HP. A bare-bones M & W4 are pictured below the specs. I would assume to represent the power required. Soooo.... will my H with "Fire-Crater" pistons & pushing 35 HP, be able to power my 22 x 38 thresher, even though the stroke remains the same? I'm going to toss this post around the forum a bit to see what others say.
