Paul, Speeking from first hand experience on the upping of HP on a M Farmall, may I tell you of my past project when I was in Tractor Shop Class when I was a senior in college at Tarleton State University @ Stephenville,TX . My tractor one 1950 , M . All info at that time said HP on a M was 35 HP. , A Super M was 45 HP. I put a Super Kit in this tractor, kit roughly consist of oversize sleeves,pistons, new valves and rotators,springs, bearings,ect. When finished she had 42 HP ,dyno tested, 50 rpm shy of highidle. for a kitted M she is salty, this project happened my Spring semester, 1980!!!She still runs strong. On your project GO FOR IT , Good Luck !!! PS. When you paint, You will still use M decals NOT .....Super M decals ,for your M will have band brakes ,not disc brakes that true supers have...... Good Luck!
