Yes Glenn,
I am aware that the SC is a smaller engine. What? About 170 CU? I haven't acquired a manual yet for it. I am also aware that the DC is closer in power to my WD45, but I can tell you by experience that the DC will outpull the WD45 on the farm because of the traction of the 38" wheels.Back in the early 70's, I had a 40 acre farm in Michigan that was mostly sandy loam. I had a rock in one field that was just below the surface about an inch. Whenever I plowed that field I couldn't remember exactly where that rock was and I would break a plow point. Got tired of it so I dug around it and exposed it. Got a chain on it and with my 45 I was able to roll it to the surface. There was a small grade and I was able to pull it down to the bottom of that grade but once there I couldn't budge it. My 45 with loaded tires and double wheel weights would just sit and spin in the dirt and start to bury itself. I let it sit there for 2 years and worked around it. Thought of blowing it up but had no experience with explosives. Finally, I borrowed a friends DC, hooked up to it pulled it to the fence row. Don't get me wrong, I have had AC's for the last 50 years and they are my first love. (Sorry, guys)
But I learned that 28" tires just don't have the traction that bigger tires do. I really am looking forward to getting this old SC perking again.
