ShaggyM BN with 36s

ShaggyM:
Here is some pictures of my BN with 36s. It was running below stock rpms in 3.0mph class and right at stock in 3.5 mph. So we changed to the 16.9x24 so we could run div 2 and open class. Where do you pull? Is there any light classes near where you pull? #2,500 #2,750 #3,000 #3,250 #3,500 #4,000

Hello!
Well in my area in IL we don't have very many classes for the small tractors.
But I have been to Wauseon a few times with my B and Super C.
The B has a warmed over stock block (133) and the Super C has a stock 153. They both run pretty good for what they are!
And the B pulls double duty! Its my snow plow in the winter!
 
I think I've talked to you at Waseon a few years a
go. My son drives for Gene Sellers on the 230. Our BN has a 135 with head work. It runs good and we have a lot of fun with it. It will hold it's own in the light classes,up to 3500#. If it's a loose track we can go to 4000#.
 
I remember you!
That was the first I pulled my B out there. It runs better now!
I have pulled it in a 3750 class last summer and it bogged at the start but came out of it and did pretty good. Found some gritty stiff in the carb.
I wouldn't mind heading to PA with it some summer just to have a little fun!
I am hoping to go to west Alton this summer at least once!
 
This BN is a 1941. We have tried to do what you suggested but the inside splines are different than our shafts that they slid on. We don't run out of power in the open classes but in the speed classes we are way below RPM's allowed. So our answer is to run 16.9x24's. We can run the speed classes &open pretty well.
Thanks for your in put. I enjoy talking & pulling the small tractors.
 
Did you change your 1st gear set ?
Also I think a 240 ring &pinion will help.
Are you running cut tires?
Your C looks good I hope you have as much fun with it as we have with the BN.
