IH Pull type combine

I was given a mid 1950's IH combine, the pull type with the canvas hopper. It has its own motor, it sure looks like a Super A type to me. This combine supposely was only use one season and the owner died. It has been sitting in a storage barn for that many years. It has dual wheels and really nice shape. Is this probably a super A powerplant that could be used on a tractor.
 
Some of those Super A's used an engine block 354898R1 so did the Super C's. You probably will need a flywheel. Hal
 
Usually a combine engine will have the provision for the starter to mount parallel to the engine block from the front. The block will be missing one bolt hole when mounted in a tractor but there are a lot of them working just fine in tractors.
 
Perhaps, but generally when you transplant a combine engine into a tractor, the tractor has a flywheel that you can use on the combine engine.

You sure you want to knock this rare combine in the head for the engine?
 
That is what I was thinking.


I watched an old IH combine 81(?) sell last spring at auction - it brought just over $10,000. Even with all the work would an A ever bring a 1/3 of that?
 
If the engine has overhead valves it isn't a Cub engine. I would keep that combine. We had one, but it was driven off the pto. Hal
