    Very true, and still considered small by IH, as opposed to mv series engines.

    I don't think it ever made it into the Scouts, but you could get a 401 AMC in the Binder pickups and travelalls as well. One of the guys I grew up with, his dad had one, it was quite the stump puller.

    A lot of stuff about IH stuff was heavy. My Scout had a fully boxed frame and weighed a ton.

    My moms 76 Scout II took a direct T-bone hit in the driver's side door in a parking lot
    by a 16 year old punk who was hot-rodding and doing burnouts.
    The 60's Mustang went away on the hook, totaled. Kid banged up.
    The Scout drivers door and roll up window still operated, and mom drove the Scout home.
    The impact moved the Scout about 15" sideways.
    Heavy is an understatement.

    I just saw Leno had a 1970 scout on his show yesterday, but... there is more to it than meets the eye. Kind of disappointing, to me anyway.
