Red 56 turbo, F-12's and F-14's with the IH engine will take pistons and sleeves from A,B,C. I'm not 100% sure about the cams in them will interchange, but the cam gears will. Only thing you have to do to the cam gear is change the timing mark.
I also know that the 504 IH tractor cam is identical to the F-12/F-14 cam. In fact the 504 cam has 1/32" higher lift.
Brian, if you want pistons and sleeves go with the A,B,C stepped(high altitude) pistons. That will help for compression. In a factory F-12,F-14 engine with the piston at TDC there is about an inch of clearence. Yes, an inch between the piston and head.
