Take a look at the John deere website under "Products and equipment" and go to "Tillage" and you can look up specs for discs. 65-95 HP should pull 8 to 12 feet of disc. I pull a tandem 8 foot disc with 22" notched disc blades on 9" spacing with a 9 foot springtooth drag behind that with a 62 HP MFWD tractor and do between 5 and 7 MPH. If I pull the 8' disc alone I have enough power to go too fast in loose soil conditions and throw dirt off to the sides with the front gangs that the rears can't reach to pull back. I could pull 12 feet of disc. MFWD makes a big difference.
