There may not be any fuel economy records, but they're generally better than the average for their time. I think they would stand well against any Kubota producing the same torque amd power.....
The CaseIH 1896 and 2096 were the first applications of the Consolidated Diesel Corporation (CDC)/Cummins B series engines. Afterwards, the Maxxum's used both the 4B-3.9 and the 6B-5.9 engines. Currently, they are perhaps the most commonly used light industrial duty engine for North American construction applications.
The larger case tractors (Magnum's) made use of the "C" series CDC/Cummins engines. I think White was pushing the "B" up to about 180 PTO hp.... a bit much in my mind. However, the "B" has been used in a lot of repowers of the years..... in a lot of applications. They're a very nice little engine.
