Okay, so it is either fake or somewhat rare...if IH ran out of lifts and/ or lift valves, then customers who bought them could have them converted to hydraulic lift, then do you suppose that it would indeed have the ported pump? I guess they could have came with the ported pumps, I am not sure how that part functions, maybe they are capped or looped under the tunnel cover...not sure which way they would have had to do it. I would think that would be the case if they actually offered the upgrade, if you had to buy the pump as well as all the rest of the necessary parts to convert it over, I doubt anyone could have afforded to have it done.
Thanks again, the input has been great!
