Sounds interesting. Anyways, I think it was about the mid-1960's that the forage harvesters went to right hand feed. I do not think they ever changed the flail chopper which no doubt hurt. I've seen the wagons and blowers in operation. The newer blowers were not power hungry unlike some other makes.
