Blaine:

I also have this fellow"s number. Brian Wood from Wooster, OH. His # is: 330-264-0826. As I said this man and the Taggart"s are supposed to make nice fiberglass grills, but I have no experience with them so your best bet is to call them and see the weight and price from each one. I do remember when I was looking for one for my 1900 that you have to drill your own holes in the grill when you get it, but it would be worth the weight loss. I did actually buy a emblem off of Brian Wood. AGCO does not make the emblem anymore for the top of the grill (just a decal now) and he made exact replica"s to fit the grill. It was somewhat expensive but beautiful, a decal had no comparison to this emblem.

As for power I do not know what to tell you. I was going to say turbo it but if you cannot then you may be nearing your limit. I have a real hot set of injectors here for one but it should at least have a turbo on it before attempting to run them or I think meltdown would occur.

Hope this helps.

John
