My Uncle had the engine out of his newer model combine yedterday and I was looking at it. Says it's a 9 litre. That got me wondering.
I know the 404 became the 466, became the 7.6, became the 8.1. Did that then grow into the 9.0 litre?
And if so, would it physically bolt up still to a 4020/4320 like the 466s do? I thought I had heard that the 8.1s would but I'm not sure who told me that.
I know that if it is the same lineage, it's still a different animal, with common rail injection and egr. And I know it's more power than the 4020s were designed for. I'm just curious if it'd bolt in, or if the bolt pattern, bellhousing pattern ect has changed in the last 50+ years.
