Can definately tell its got more HP than a hi-dome piston MTA and Super M I've got. Shiny moldboards on that plow. Plenty of frame, front and rear wheel weights to get that job done. Great to see its restored.
That’s impressive when I saw the video title I thought that will be in sandy soil but nope and what speed and I noticed that you idle down before you lifted the plow at the end of the field and She still pull like your walking your dog!😀🇨🇦
I miss running our old SuperM. They have a sound of their own especially straight piped. I am 64 now but at 12 and 13 years old it felt like I was on top of the world. Love that old RED POWER!
It would be interesting to know how the other engine and transmission components hold up with the boost in engine horsepower. That soil is black clay which really adds resistance to the four bottom plow.
Our local IHC dealer also would get us any M&W products we needed. Have an 806 diesel with the M&W turbo kit and the M&W live hydraulic kits on several of our old Farmalls. Not to mention all the repower piston sets in them. That 806 is still kicking butt after all these 48 years I've owned it! Really miss the company.
Thats a nice looking rig , If it were mine i would pull a 3 bottom and little slower to preserve the re-end , The clutch and engine main bearings over time just my opinion and good video sir !
The Tractor you are referring to,can completely handle the job…Bill has meticulously gone through all of his tractors & knows just exactly what they can accomplish… no worries.. But appreciate your opinion… Thanks for watching his videos …
We ran a Super W6 that my dad put an M&W kit in in 1961. By the time we retired that tractor in 1987 we figure it had given us 38,000 hours of service. The Clutch was never touched, even though two teenage boys learned drive on it. The transmission and rear end never gave us a bit of concern. We pulled 4x16 with it, but never this fast. My dad had set the operating rpm's higher, I think 1650 instead of 1450. We pulled in third gear. This tractor ran away from our stock M pulling a 3x14 plow. Talking with a tractor pulling friend, he figures that 44 hp engine would have been putting out 65 hp to pull that plow the way we did. I'm surprised he didn't need more add on weights to handle that plow at the speed he was going. The governor was complaining he was going too fast with the way the engine was cutting out.
Nice to see you have a little green to with all the red on your farm, Bill 😂👏 You have all winter now to paint that 4020 as perfect as the rest of your collection 👍👍 Hope you and Luann have a great Christmas! God bless 🙏
We traded in an 1950 m that was on a new idea picker. We took the picker off and sold tractor to a farmer that needed a cheap spare tractor. He came back later that month and said it run around his 656. He took to the dyno. It dynoed ar 70hp on the pto and had the sheet to prove. I know it would pick the front end off the ground in 3rd gear.
