agpilot: Just maybe IH had more efficient manual writers in 56 compared to 54. Think about it, 350 has a few things different from 300, yet they are probably no more or less difficult to describe. Your saying 300 which was gas only, 110 pages, 350 gas is 102 pages, Roger's diesel manual is 104 pages. Could be that by 1956 long winded writers like me were no longer in vogue.
One would naturally say you should have the manual labeled for the tractor in question, 350 did develop more hp and on Nebraska test, also the drawbar hp was much closer to pto hp than 300.

Remember that gas hog drove IH to find a diesel before 350 production.
The fast hitch was probably the biggest difference, but I think IH printed a separate manual for hitches.
