from H to 80 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Friend of mine went to a Wisconsin salvage yard to get some pulling parts. While he was there the guy showed him his extensive collection of IH tractors one of them being an 86 series with a V-8 that is supposed to be factory stock. I've never heard of one much less seen one,what do you guys think ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Bud guy Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 I’m thinking your friend should have taken a picture if it wasn’t the 4x4. That being said, I could see someone cobbling together an 86 series V8 as a “what if” tractor. Be kinda neat actually 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acem Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 1 hour ago, bitty said: It would technically be an 88 series .... So why was the 4586 not a 4588? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Injpumped Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 when the 45 came out, the last digit did indeed indicate the number of cylinders, hence it being the 4568. When the 86 came out, they were all just the 86 series, although the small doncaster tractors were the 84 series, most being 4 cylinder, but I think there's a few exceptions there too lol!

1256pickett Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Maybe it should be 1586-8? If it was a 15 that was used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acem Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 So why did the 3388 & 3588 2+2 and later 3088, 3288, 3488, & 3688 all start with 3 even though they were two very different series and end with 8 even though they were 6 cyl???

JaredT Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Ahh, the great questions of the universe. I have a boatload of questions i would like the answer to, but better left to ponder, why and what if and the famous " who designed this so stupidly"? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtfireman85 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 I thought the 68 were factory V8, other than engines, what sets them apart from 86 series? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrfred54 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Questions that we will always ponder and have questions about. Wonder who decides what the model numbers will be on a series?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because IH abandoned the "last digit is the number of cylinders" thing when they started cranking out 2+2's. The 00, 50, and 60 series tractors didn't have 0 cylinders, did they?

660 driver Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Ive had a couple conversations with scott. Seen his collection. Hes always done us right but is very opinionated. Looked at an 806 he had for sale before we bought ye turbo 414. Was a nice clean 806. Also bought a rad for the super m from him. That rad is still in use.

Big Bud guy Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 16 hours ago, bitty said: It would technically be an 88 series .... So would it be easier to throw a 550 into a 1586 or put an 86 series cab on a 1568. Or maybe bolt the front half of a 1568 onto a 1586?

The 58-63 years the 2nd number was the number of cylinders. 340, 460, 560, 140 etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
