M Farmall Sheppard Diesel

[boberjagel]

So an M became an H after converting to a sheppard diesel. Was there any way to crank up the injector pump on those to make up the difference. How about a turbo?

It was the same size as a M, 3 7/8 X 5 1/4, so no advantage, it was a 3 cylinder, so why spend good money after bad ?

Why didn't they use the 4 cylinder Sheppard in the M instead of the 3 cylinder? That might have been a worthwhile conversion.

Call your local fuel injection system shop and tell them what kind of pump it is. They would know better than anybody.

 

[John M]

Wouldnt fit without cutting the frame rails.

 

[Bob N.Y.]

Really! The 4 cylinder Sheppard was that much bigger than the 4 cylinder International engine?

 

[John M]

That should have ended with a ? instead of a period. I have little to no experience with the Sheppard conversion. I think there were actually 2 or 3 that would fit, but only was made for the conversion, maybe, I dont know.
