240 engine argument

Jason Finchum · Jan 16, 2012

I got into an argument with a friend today over an engine in a 240. He thinks it will work in a 300 u but I don't . I told him it would work in A - 230 and Read also 404. Will someone help settle this. Thanks, Jason

He is wrong.

Agreed

You are right. He is wrong.

The 300 uses a Farmall H size engine block. The 240 uses a Super C size engine block.

I believe a 240 block will work in a 330, though.

I agree and probably a 340 as well, but it will not
be as powerful unless the governor and other
components are changed. Probably the front cover as
well using differing engine mounts. IIRC Jim
