Don't have an answer on the FB part of the H prefix but the book: Farmall:
The Golden Age, 1924-1954
By Lee Klancher, does refer to the V part of the prefix as calling out a
"High Clearance" or
vegetable  Tractor.

Hey Dudley,
Thanks to you for keeping the book for reference for all of us!  The book
indicates FBH is an H
tractor, it would be nice to know what the letters mean, presumably F means
Farmall & H the tractor
style- but why the B?
Thanks again.
Bruce

Don't know about hammer size but ... according to page 9 of "FARMALL
Letter Series Tractors" by Fay and Kraushaar and published by MBI, the
prefix FBH denotes Farmall H.  So, since it has provided the answer to
your' question, we should thank Guy for writing the book and I should
thank my still a friend Mike for buying it, loaning it to me some five
years ago and my refusal to give it back to him.
