casey: If the price is right I wouldn't hesitate. I had a Bush Hog 20' disk and from Allan's photo, much the same configuration. Mine had 20" blades.

1066 with duals and no weight added, pulled it quite easily. I had stones, so prefered pulling it with 100 hp Deere. My cowboys couldn't get much over 4 mph with Deere, which suited me fine in the stones. One thing I found with this disk was leave the wings up behind 656 and 560, man that thing would cut with the added weight from wings being up. Look at it this way, you will have a larger tractor in future.

I tried out a 766 diesel once, and while I didn't have it hooked to disk, I think it would handle that disk with controlled depth, it may take duals. Just think what you can do if you really want to cut deep for some reason. 766 is quite a bit more tractor than specs make it out to be. When I tried out the 766, had it on 5x16 semi mount plow, plowing old pasture that hadn't been turned in 50 years. I couldn't say it really worked the tractor.
