I will see what I have at the house. I have a whole drawer full of IHC stuff. My brother-in-law had the block for his Cub machined and then rebuilt. He had around $1500 into the engine.
IHC did make most of their own motors. The Cub was built in Louisville I am almost certain. I think the plant was retooled like three times. The machinery wore out because they made so many Cubs! I think the last Cubs rolled out in the late 70's. I remember seeing them at the dealer when I was little. IHC farmed out their small tractors to Mitsubishi not too long afterward.
The A, B and C all share pretty much the same engine. IHC put Perkins diesels in some models, though I don't recall which ones off hand. I am certain of the Continentals in the Cubs though. Valu-Bilt Check out these guys for used and rebuilt parts. They used to be called Farm Family Center. Should you need a rebuild, you might try a block exchange rather than trying to find a machine shop locally. It depends upon what you have available. The guy that did my brother-in-law's did a nice job, but not inexpensive.
