Very little, unfortunately. I bought it as is a couple of years ago to run that MOCO as the experts here said I was underpowered using my 5400. It's a 1973, QR, with 8800 hours. Starts hard year around, runs my feed grinder about once a month.
I found it on CL about 50 miles away, the guy has two other 4430s and has a young son who always wants to be with Daddy. His wife convinced him to upgrade the second tractor to a SG cab for the kid's safety. He didn't want to let this one go and asked for first chance if I ever sell it. He bought it locally and used it for hay mower and round baling.
He said he did well at local pulls, until someone complained about the intercooler. The BTO in my neighborhood took quite the interest in it this fall- they had one new. He said the dealer they bought it from, also close to where I bought mine, would turn up the pumps for more power, but only if he installed the intercooler to protect the motor. I suspect both came form that same dealer, but no evidence to prove so. The previous owner travelled a lot of pavement to farm, wore the tires down, which works okay for me as hay tractor. Except for 2018, when I got stuck mowing, raking and baling during the year!

Today's Featured Article - A 1937 John Deere Unstuck - by Gary Hickman. Here is my story of how I got the pistons out of a 1937 JD B that the engine had been stuck for about 14 years: About 12 years ago my Dad gave me one of the tractors I ran as I was growing up on our farm in central Nebraska. The engine on this tractor, a 1937 John Deere "B", had been stuck for 2 years before he gave it to me. This last spring (1999) I hauled the tractor to our 2 acre lot in St. Libory Nebraska where it joined my antique machinery collection, at that time a 1929 Caterpillar T
