how much hp can I expect to see if i was to have the fuel pump turned up? I have the chance to but a 1 ton hesston baler and would like to use my 2294 to run it.
 
I have heard the 3294s would kill rear ends if pulled hard as in heavy tillage and that is basically a 2394 (160hp) engine with a 2094-2294mfd rear end. If they weren't over worked, (duals, weights etc...) They were fine.
 
If the extra HP will be used for PTO work You will be OK up to 165 -170. These tractor have the light duty 504 and have some limitations. Smaller crank and no piston oil cooling. If these tractors are weighted down and used to pull a larger drawbar load with that HP watch out, they can bite you were it hurts, the checkbook! Rod.
 
the service teck that i visited with was only comfortable with 10% over stock so 150hp would just be in the comfort zone.you can run more but you better have one eye on the gauges at all times.specially the engine temp gauge. and a very clean at all times radiator.just my two cents worth. i would think that it should handle the baler at 150hp anyway.
