I guess the old Cockshutts ran cooler. I can't recall ever seeing 
glowing exhausts on them except for one time. I had put an old oval car 
muffler onto the 40 as the original had rusted out. While working at 
night harrowing I can recall seeing a round red spot on the top side of 
that oval muffler (I was standing up) and it indicated just where the 
end of the inside baffle pipe was on the muffler. I guess the increased 
back pressure of a car muffler was enough to heat things up. This was 40 
years ago.
Now I have seen a red hot exhaust manifold on a swather engine.  The 
slant six Chrysler on the Massey swather would glow like a piece of iron 
fresh out of the forge some evenings when I came in from work. Funny, 
with all the cracks in that manifold you'd think it would have adequate 
ventilation to run cool. :-)
