The Allis Chalmers H3 gas was introduced in the fall of 1960 with an AC 149 CI motor. In 1963 at serial # 6001 it received the 160 CI AC motor. I believe the larger 160 CI coincided with the change to a dry air cleaner and an oval muffler at the same time. ------------- Allis-Chalmers 1927 E,1928 U,1944 WC,H3,D10,D12,D14,D15,D17,D21,TT-10 Terra Tiger, 1964 AC Golf Cart, Allis Chalmers Fridges,100's of AC Literature and Ops.and Parts manuals |

Even the first H-3 had an oval muffler. The oval is 7" the same as the D-10/12 Series III.
I have serial 1105 (1960) I don't think the 160 cu.in. later H-3 had a dry air cleaner. ------------- Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed |

I stand corrected. Sorry. I shot from the hip. Calvin is correct in that ALL H3's had the oval muffler and also the dry air cleaner was added later after the engine was upgraded to the 160. The book by Norm Swinford states that the dry air cleaner was added when the engine was changed to 160 CI but the actual parts book shows a serial # change later in 1965 when the engine speeds were increased to 1600 RPM. I have a 1966 H3 #8961 and it does have both dry air cleaner and oval muffler although the muffler on there now is round due to prior owner could only find one like that. There is a place on side of block (hard to find)that gives serial # of engine and mine also has 160 before the serial number. It has the 6 way AC blade on it. Runs great but smokes a bit. ------------- Allis-Chalmers 1927 E,1928 U,1944 WC,H3,D10,D12,D14,D15,D17,D21,TT-10 Terra Tiger, 1964 AC Golf Cart, Allis Chalmers Fridges,100's of AC Literature and Ops.and Parts manuals |

The serial number is located on the left side, on the torque tube or clutch housing just behind where the engine bolts in. ------------- Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed |

 Look in the area of the white tape for the tractor number and just ahead of that, on the block, is the engine number. ------------- http://www.ae-ta.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.ae-ta.com Lena 1935 WC12xxx, Willie 1951 CA6xx Dad bought new, 1954WD45 PS, 1960 D17 NF |
