How well will a 350 head and cam work for a H motor upgrade for pulling.I have my doubts that the cam will fit. What have others done for more HP to an H without stroking?
Thanks to all.

Again, like the Doctor was asking, CHADS can help! He is a great guy! What an awesome machine his H is! I saw it at Princeton, IN last weekend and, oh my gosh, what a machine! I never thought you could make an H run like that!! He really is sharp!! I think he could hammer anyone from 3500-8500 lbs if he wanted!! SPECTACULAR!!!

SPECTACULAR!!! Chad has a good running tractor and it seems to have allot of power. But, are you telling me he let the tractors that beat him win just because he didn't want to? I don't think so. I was there and didn't see it win any first places or hammer anyone in the 3500-8500 lb classes. Maybe the ones that were ahead of it were just that much more SPECTACULAR!! Better put credit where credit is due. The distance down the track is what matters! Don't choke on your own line of BS.

With a line of $hit like this you could get a job as sales spokesman for Denny's Carburetor. Or are you already? Sounds way to familiar!!

Thanks Doc!! Here is a few tips on H's,, start with swaping out the cam like you said,, will help low end power, also get a SH-350 intake and carb,, Run a compression test,, let me know what it is,, I can tell you about where the engine would be in HP. Now,, Distributors,, GET AN ELECTRONIC IGNITION!! My Brother in law got one for his Massey 101,, what a lightning bolt!! Go to a parts store and get a chevy distributor recurve kit,, you want to install the lightest springs tha the kit has,, then, get a good governor spring,, The farmall governor is the easiest to hop up,, just change the spring!! The reason for this,, is to speed up the governors mechanical operation,, will boost throttle responce by 30% I have springs that will wake it up too,, I would pull off the valve cover, and with a compression guage,, adjust the valve lash until peak cyl pressure is acheived, do one at a time,, the guage is like checking your work,, Check to see what the casting number is,, a good number to look for is an 8043D,, it is the high compression head for the H_SH-300-350,, with the right machine work,, it could match the lp head. The 8043 can be milled about .110 safely,, I also have thin copper head gaskets too,, it boosts compression by 10-15psi per cyl,, more could be possible if you have M&W pistons,, or firecraters. Think this over,, Let me know if ya have more questions,, happy to help,, ChadS

Thanks so much ChadS. My brother and I have an M puller that we totally went through about two years ago. It makes good power for us. We did use the electronic ignition and I do agree that it is a tremendous help. This H I am considering building has IH firecrater pistons it is 164 cubic inches. (I used the overbore kit)When we built the M we quickly got into alot of money when stroking and boring it. Basically, I would like to develop some cheaper horsepower for the H. Understanding that gains will not be as significant as a bore and stoke motor.
Thanks,
Brandon
