The engine size is probably the biggest difference. The 300 Series has the 148 cubic inch engine and the 350 Series has around a 160 cubic inch engine. The 350 Series is much more rare. It was only made one year and it is a favorite of tractor pullers.

Along with a bigger engine the 350 had more crop clearance with the taller tires and bigger cast spoke wheels later used on the 500B/600B series and the 630s. Point of interest, there was a model 300 with these wheels and tires that did not have the bigger engine. It was called a high-clearance 300.

Yep...you're right. that was the 312 that my dad has. Same wheels as my 630.

The 350 will have a plate bolted to the maifold side of the block as this is the same sleeveless engine used in the later 500 and 600. A 350 has a 3 bolt starter and the 3 point mounts to axle with castings instead of the steel parts used on the 312.
