Folks, I'm a Ford and, to a much lesser degree AC, guy and do not claim to know much about International tractors beyond what I learned by my long deceased uncle who farmed until the day he died in 1986 with a regular, bought new in 1927, and a VERY good F-30, bought used in the mid 1950s.
Today I visited the Franklin County, IN antique tractor show which is probably the best show in my area. The featured brand was AC, and there were many AC tractors on display. I walked through all of the tractor exhibits (and most of the other exhibits as well), and was at least somewhat familiar with most of what I saw.
That said, I saw a Farmall F-12 with a flathead four cylinder engine. All of the F-12 tractors that I have previously seen have had OHV engines. Did International use a flathead engine in the early F-12s?
