Hi Brian. Here's an exerpt from forum member John Smith's web site that is dedicated to N-series tractors:

1950 Serial number 8N245637 - 8N343592 This was a big year for changes to the 8N. At serial number 247571 the engine oil pump was redesigned to use larger gears to provide more volume. At serial number 252845 the one piece shifter handle with the small forged knob was changed to a threaded handle with a black plastic knob that screws on. The TSX-33 carburetor that had been used for several years was changed at serial 260595 to the TSX241 model. The top link rocker was changed from a single hole to a 3 hole design. A new engine block was cast so the distributor could be relocated at serial number 263844. The engine now had a side mounted distributor with separate coil on the right side and the generator was moved to the left side of the engine. The "8N" casting mark on the left rear of the block was changed to "8N-B". The Ford script was embossed into the rear fenders around serial number 270xxx. Dealer installed accessory lighting kits eliminated the headlight "wing" mounts and replaced them with round stamped steel mounts. At serial 276115 the carburetor was changed to the TSX-241A. The Proofmeter (tach and hourmeter) was added to the instrument panel at serial number 290271.

Hope this helps..... ..... Ed

Hello Brian,

To the best of my knowedge I believe the Proofmeter began production late in the 1950 year - somewhere around serial number 300K (+-)

Regards.
