First off I will tell you that I have been around John Deeres and have not had much exposure to Farmalls. I am currently building a JD 70 for pulling. I will be able to pull it in 2nd and 3rd gear but I think I will want something a little faster. I wrote the post on putting a V-8 in a M and was thrilled with all the replies (I think this is one of the higher quality boards I have been on). Back to my question, I found a 560 wheatland in a IH slavage yard near my home. It has the remains of a big block Chrysler in it (I might even be able to use this block when I restore my 'Cuda). My idea was repowering it with a two-cycle detroit. That would give it an Oliver super 99 or Massey 98 flavor, and it would sound wicked. Since the 560 had a six cylinder in it there would be more engine room than an M so would a 4-71 fit in it? Add a turbo to it and large injectors and your running road gear! I don't know much about farmall tractors, heck I couldn't even tell if it had TA or not. What do you think on this idea? Any comments or ideas? Heck, if I could get this put together I might even become a convert.

It is sometimes used so well you can't tell its there and other times used as a sloppy quick fix. Finding where and how it can be used correctly is key to whether you are using it as an "inelegant hack" or an integral solution to difficult and expens
