>1. Does 3 hp sounds like the true hp increase due to Fire Crater pistons. Yes it's reasonable, but it depends on your starting point (what do you have now?). >2. Does the $80/hole sound reasonable (not incl labor of course) That would be a very good price. Did a quick online check at an IH dealer and see a range of $140-190 per cylinder depending on which kit. $75 per cylinder is closer to the aftermarket kit prices. Maybe ask them to quote you the IH part number that they are delivering (meaning it might not be IH, and not all firecrator kits are created equal [diff dome heights]).
>3. Does the crankshaft issue sound plausible.
Not in my experience. Crank failures I've seen so far were either bad machine work, low oil pressure (bad pump or run out of oil) or swapped bearing caps. >4. Is the crankshaft in a 100 the same as in a 140 or not?
No. Journals are the same but front pulley is different for the new water pump layout (and they attach differently).
And I think this is a link to the whole thread,
