The 3000 is about 40 PTO hp and 48 engine hp... IIRC, the 3055 is an early derivative of the 3000 that used the 4000's double reduction (planetary) rear axle. It retained the 3000's engine and power spec. The 4100 is a bit later model ('76-'81) that used the 4600 rear, the 3600 front axle and an oddball 183 cid engine. Not that it's a bad engine... it was just a one off for that model and probably not so well supported today. I wouldn't worry about the 3055. I wouldn't really worry about the 4100 either. I'd just plan on installing a 201 engine should the need arise... All Ford's after 1965 were 'world' tractors assembled from components manufactured at various plants with final assembly done at Basildon UK for the UK and world market, at Antwerp, Belgium for the European market and at Highland Park and later Romeo Michigan for the North American market... ALL engines were assembled at Basildon. Most transmissions were done at Basildon. S-O-S transmissions at Highland Park. Lift covers I believe were done at Antwerp... and so on. There's few worries with those tractors if they're in good working order.
