Largest 540 rpm pto generator I've seen is the 60KW NorthStar. That's 90HP which is plenty but surge loads when starting large motors will take all the HP the tractor has. Too large for 540 rpms truth be told if operated near full capacity.
Usually 50KW is the largest 540 and the 30,40 & 50 KW's are usually offered with 1000rpm shafts.
At the tail end of two cylinder Deere production. The 430,435,440,530,630 & 730 could be ordered with a 1000rpm pto. The 840 industrial units had a 1000 output starting serial number 8400900. No more than 300 of those ever made.
Mother Deere also sold field installation kits to internaly convert the 20 & 30 series. They also sold the external gear box rpm changers and longer drawbars.
I would enjoy running across some of that 1000rpm two cylinder stuff.
