Frame and entire design of an F-20 totally different than an M. Our local Fireman's association hosted an NTPA tractor pull for a couple years. Interesting what shows up to pull in the smaller classes. An almost stock looking Farmall 460 but instead of the 221 cid gas engine it had a 501 cid gas heavy truck engine. He pulled in 3-4 weight classes, when he got enough weight on he could really pull. There was a Minneapolis-Moline that gave that 460 a good run, Minny made a 800 cid in-line 6, and I think he had the 4 cylinder version of that engine, 533 cid. 460 won one class, Minny won the other class, both pulled within inches of the other.

There are some sectioned engineering drawings of various FARMALL tractors, the H and M in particular, they are very similar, shows details of the clutch and clutch housing, transmission and final drives. With a little effort you should be able be able to find them on-line. The M does in fact have a pilot bearing in the clutch, the clutch shaft extends back the 10-12 inches to a bolt together Universal joint right ahead of the input shaft into the transmission. The clutch is totally supported by the flywheel bolted to the engine crankshaft. The "bell housing" is cast as a section of the main frame of the tractor. No real way to avoid using any of that casting. It does a nice clean job of joining the engine to the transmission.
Company out east, in Pennsylvania, LEAMAN'S Tractor Parts that makes parts you will need, the engine plate that joins the engine to the main frame of the tractor. IH did use a 550 cid V-8 truck diesel engine in one of their BIG frame later model tractors. A 454 would bolt right into that chassis.

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]
