Migraine, Taking T_Bone's temperature values as a guide, I'd say you might be borderline as to whether or not the pipe will "blue". I've got a Ford with a pyro in the pipe off the turbo, and it consistently runs 900+ under load, and up to 1150 on a hard pull. That pump is turned up a lot though. Dunno where the exhaust temp will be on yours.... There would be several factors involved including the length of the pipe, and whether or not it's all exposed to moving air. If it's contained under a lot of hood, then the air circulation potential is not there. On my Ford, I just have a length of aluminised exhaust pipe. Below the hoodline it's going to hell. Above the hood is new (muffler just fell off), but so far it's holding.
If you do go with a straight pipe, be sure to get the outlet above the cab, or you'll not enjoy the sound too much. This old Ford barks like a junkyard dog... but with the pipe above the cab, most of the rasp is gone. Do notice a bit more racket on a hard pull. Bystanders might notice more noise, but in cab, there's little difference. I would also keep th epipe straight. Any bend is likely to run higher temps, or at least discolor more quickly. Look at most any tractor with a curved top in th eexhaust rather than a rain cap. They almost always rust through in the bend. Something to consider anyway. Rod

Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he reached his early sixties
