Driving low power tractors?

I agree and ran one of the first year Series 60's. Best engine design at that time. And still one of the best.
Would not give my 1995 Series 60 Detroit for anything else made.
Now old 2 strokes a different story. And people even today. Think its a Detroit, its the same as in the 60's and 70's.

 

When you mention a Mack with 237hp and a 5 speed these days, people think you are crazy, but it worked.

I had a old IH with a NHC250 Cummins I ran local for years. It was slow but it got there.

I guess the worst was a single axle IH with a 3208 Cat. I don't know what the HP is of the 3208, but it ain't much. I think it is around 200 hp.

 

We are still running old school. 400 hp Cummins and 425 hp Cats. Both of those would be considered low hp by today's standards, but they work.

 

My dad ran a 71 F model til the mid 80s and a U model with a 237 up until the early 90s lol

 

Were semi-oldschool my dad runs. 13sp 93 mid roof ch it was a "350" from the factory but not since it was inframed. His other truck that I drive is a 99 set forward axle flat top ch with 460 18sp w/4.42

My dad loved his old bc4 cpl 838 315hp but it was a "hot" 315

 

What rears in the 475?

 

Here's the 93 and the turbo compared to the stock one. S400-SX4-75/96

 

It's not 25% but it's the nearest I could find.
