I have a H with head no. 8043-DC9 On the dino it had 42hp. max. It has 3 7/16 {the best i can measure with tape) high dome pistons in it. I found a head off of a 350 361479-R1. manafold, carb.put it on and it now has 36 hp. What happen? I worked it in the field and it ran good. After i ran it for a while it got hot. When it set and idaled it started to put out white smoke.I took the plugs out to do a compression test and no 2 shot out water. took the head off and it had a head gasket out. The compression was 130 -135.I got a new head gasket and i don't know which head to put on! Did I lose power from Head or carb.?

Did you use the same dino each time? Was the dino hot or cold? 42 horse out of the engine you have described is really good.

Why not put the original head back on. You know that that one is giving you good performance. 42 hp out of tractor that is rated at 28 is a 50% increase. Unless you are using it for pulling then you have yourself quite a farming tractor. If you are looking for more power for farming then I would suggest getting a bigger tractor that would have more of the modern conveniences such as IPTO and live hydraulics. Just my $0.02 worth.
