Hi,
I recently purchased a 55 wire tie baler fitted with what appears to be a Farmall A motor.
The baler serial number is 13000R,the motor serial number on the block is 24866,while the plate on the clutch/right angle drive is BU 2-55,10675.
What i was wanting to know is if this motor will fit into a Farmall A or super A.
The motor has a single fuel tank,no starting tank,and a petrol type manifold.It appears similar to the A except it has a dipstick for the oil,a provision in the block for a fuel pump and provision for a hydrolic oil pump similar to the super A.It has no provision for a temp guage in the block.No electrics,crank start.
Regards
Paul

Evening from OZ, Paul.
I have 55W as well and the casting Nos. tell me it is a 1956 model.Yeah the motor will fit a Farmall A. I don't whether you know Paul, but IH also made them in Geelong, fitted with a Wisconson V4 and called them the GL55W. Never sounded as good as the A motor though.

According to my book the 55 hay baler used the C-60, C-113 and the C-123 engine. Hal

The 55 baler was built in the UK as the B55 and fitted with a PTO drive or the B275 tractor engine. MJ

I have a 55W. It originally had a B-U2 as my angle drive plate stated. But somewhere along the way the block was updated from a C-113 (U-2) to a C-135. I had to really research when I rebuilt this engine because the i.d. plate ended up not representing what the block actually was since it is on the right angle drive and not the block itself. C-113's were used in the A's, B's, and C's. Everything but the supers. Production of these were from late 1939 to 1949. Problem with moving baler engines to tractors is the location of the starter(cranking motor) is different. Power unit engines and baler engines are one in the same however. There is a location for a temp gauge on the top of the head on the manifold side towards the front between the first and second head bolts. I bought a reproduction temp gauge and the sensor screwed in perfectly. I made a bracket for the gauge and screwed it in where my generator used to be.
