Bin size is 40 bu. Standard extension adds 10 bu. Then the elevator has a hard time pushing up wet grain. (There was an optional elevator extension also). 13' is an awful lot of header for an E. I suppose it would do OK in beans, depending on your ground speed. Years ago I was able to get what I needed from a junkyard to add the reel lift valve to an older E. That was also an option. I don't know if the K valve is the same. It's located back by the engine where the E valve is right under the dash panel. I added the quick-tach lift pipe to the feeder house of an E for a black corn head. I suppose you could do the same and hang a K grain head on there, but the drive is the challenge. The E heads all run off a belt from the combine, then a chain runs back from the header jackshaft to run the feeder beater. On later combines a jackshaft was added to the combine feeder house, and that drove the heads, and the feeder beater. I suppose one could add the jackshaft to an E. But with all that you might as well find an EIII, K, K2, etc.
