Mf 300 combine corn heads

[Gearhead210]

What corn heads would fit on a MF300 combine (quick attach head)? Would a 4 row 30? head be too heavy for the machine like the 43 or 1143? Id like to find a 3 row 30? head but they seem nonexistent.

Having run a 300 way back in the day I know that they want a 3 row head. I believe ours was a 321 which was the old style non-quick attach head. I also believe that MF stopped making the 300 around 1977 so the last 300 is over 40 years old. I'd call somebody like Stitzel down in Hamburg, PA and even though he probably will not have one he may know what direction to point you as he is almost smack dab in the middle of Mennonite country. Also, check Craigslist twice per week as the rarest farm equipment does turn up there once or twice per year.

A 3 row narrow would be a model 33.
