IH did sell Victor Reinz head gaskets. I like the victor ones the best but thats just me. Also haven't purchase one from IH lately to know what they have. For a C-248 engine IH was selling VR-1698 or IH 369957R2 head gasket. For C-264 and C281 IH 48957-DF or VR 3149. Think VR still sells both. Fel Pro used to sell both types but went to one # now I think.
I like the VR-1698 the best on a M engine. Problem is with a late LP head like for a later 400 and all 450 tractors like I think you are using it may not work. Due to casting and gasket making tolerances the VR-1698 gasket may hang into the combustion chamber on the spark plug side of the LP head. Just a little and maybe only one combustin chamber sometimes. Sometimes they fit good.
But if your only buying one gasket or don't have a c-248 one to check you may want the VR-3149 type or compareiable head gasket.
Looks like a fel pro # sold here and I think you will get the same gasket for all three engines, C-248, C-264 or C-281.

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o ... [Read Article]
