I was wondering why Massey and other,s that used to have V8 diesel,s in their tractor,s,
Dont use thenm anymore?
Is it that V8,s have a different character for a tractor than six,s?
Or is it that V8,s are maybe expensive to fix?
i hope it,s not a copy cat syndrome between maker,s,
Or is it that V8,s run at a higher speed
copared to a six that run,s at maybe 21 to 2,200
RPM,S?
Also , maybe people think that if your running higher R,s, that it will wear out faster, or be more wear on part,s faster,
any one of these thing,s I dont believe,
maybe it was just up dating to the electronic
control box,s that most tractor,s have nowday,s,
And it was simpler to adapt to the engine,s currently out, or that the maker,s just got a good deal on their engine,s , & wanted to stay with them,or maybe it was dumb emission,s,.
or maybe it was easier to get simple power out of a turbocharged six than a v8,
i just wish there were more V8,s out there, cause I sure like the sound, and design of them,
Man, O Man, they just scream, and scream,for more,
And the torque is Incredible!
K,C,
