If it is old enough to make you trade Power for Windshield Wipers ( Vacuum), you may not even have "Sealed Beams"...!!
They were like that until about 1952 or 1953...
Those were the days when you may not have been able to keep 20 mph and SEE out the windshield...!!!
Before 1952, the engines did NOT have "Drilled Cranks" and used "Dippers" for oiling the Rods.. trying to run a steady 45 or 50 ( at MOST) was
about all those would stand...!
The 1952, on up have pressure to a Drilled Crank and can be run much Harder...( RPM-wise..).
As for just plain old "Power", that old '51 we had would take 100 bushel of Soybeans up the hill toward Lewis Center from 315 and NEVER drop out of High Gear...it may have been still in High gear, but you were sunning 13 MPH..dropping a gear and you topped the hill at about 10 MPH..
and we thought that was pretty good..it was a lot faster than taking wagons and a tractor...!!
