No, I dont think 245 is much. Bigger engines with differnt running characterisitcs will sound totally different than what they used to. When I first heard a 300 psi stroker engine rev up, I was like damn!! Its a new ballgame, but I have to add, your engine is nothing like a 30,000 race engine,, the 30K is not running near the cubic inch, and is running at what,, 6500, 8500 rpm?? your running what,, 2000 if that?? lot of difference in the low rpm engines, than there is in the high revers. big cube engines are going to sound so well, frightfully different, that it will make you go HMMMMM!!!!! ! As long as it is not detonating, or preigniting, for sure, the plugs are brown, under a load, its not doing anything strange like missing, or popping through the carb, a little popping through the exhaust is normal, especilally if you run a staight pipe exhaust, not under a load, but usually when its coming back down from high rpm. Dont compare the race engine to the tractor, 2 different stories,, and lot of difference in the way they run, If you know it is running good, and not knocking, or what have ya, just get use to the new way it runs, if there is a weak point, it will come out sooner than you would ever expect. A big moline sounds like it would blow the heads off it when you crack the throttle, or put a load on it, Ive never owned a moline, or a case like yours, but have heard enough of em run to know they can shake the ground. maybe someone here ahs had exact experience with a big cube case, and can tell you what to look for and expect, but dont ever fear what it can do, only fear you should have, is what you know would be wrong already, JMHO, ChadS
