We have a gas 560 and it is one gutless brute!!! We had the engine rebuilt by a local tractor pull rebuilder and it put out around 65 hp on his dyno when he set the carb up before we brought her home. We got it in the field along side of our M-TA(with a 281 block) and the M-TA can do nearly everything the 560 can do, except 3pt hitch work, and do it better! The 6 cyl gas engine has no torque to it when compared to the 281 with Firecraters. I personally would never buy a gas 560, I seen a Diesel 560 that was out-of-the-field stock at a tractor pull the other night, it was running about 80 hp and that D282 was some torquey engine, it would have drug the sled into the next county if they would have let it!!!
