I'll have to resurrect this topic from the dead so hopefully Hugh and Stan can add some insights. At some point in the future, I want to rebuild my engine with the fire crater pistons. I talked to the local tractor shop, and they said they do this pretty often and use IH parts and it would be around $80 per hole (as he put it). He said you typically get up to 3 extra horse power total. The only potential downside, he stated, was that they had reports of crankshafts going bad after this upgrade but he went on to say that his mechanics never could confirm whether or not it was due to the upgrade or due to just bad crankshafts. So my questions are 1. Does 3 hp sounds like the true hp increase due to Fire Crater pistons. 2. Does the $80/hole sound reasonable (not incl labor of course) 3. Does the crankshaft issue sound plausible. 4. Is the crankshaft in a 100 the same as in a 140 or not? Thanks! Ramon
