I have no idea what decibel level that thing would put out under load at rated RPM. The tractor with a good muffler will probably put out more than you should be listening to. At the very least, you should use ear plugs PLUS mickey's. But that still assumes you know how to insert the ear plugs and get a good fit with the mickey's. No long hair, eye glass bows, etc. that will break the sound seal. We had an old neighbor who did his plowing with an Oliver Super 88 with a straight pipe. Swore he got more HP out of it that way. You could hear him in the next county. If you do decide to do it, you can be sure someone has done it before and made more noise than a D17 can make so you won't be breaking any records.
