I've always been left with the impression that the FCM stood for Farmall (Model C) Motor. I guess that's too simple to even be an explaination.

It is difficult to follow IH's logic in some of their prefixes. In this case is is simply the designation for a C113 engine installed in a Farmall C. However, it is also the designation for a C123 engine installed in a Super C or Super A-1, and perhaps other applications. This can cause confusion when you get a tractor in which the engine has been changed, then you have to start looking at the rest of the number, which becomes more confusing -- and that's as far as I'm going to go.
