Hi Calvin,

Thanks. I figured I was about right on the price, but I wanted to check with some of you guys. My father swapped in a Farmall M for the 88 in 1954. The M wasn't a bad tractor, but the 88 was superior in every way. The first motor had 7700 hrs. on it, the second motor had 7200 hrs. on it. At the time we put the third motor in it, a S 88 block was all that was availible, so Pop went with that. The S 88 had around 7400 to 7500 hrs. on it when the tach cable broke and it got ran several years after that before the motor gave up the ghost. The S88 block in the 88 only has a couple of hundred hrs. on the thing, so we should end up with a pretty good tractor for quite a few years.
