Its not horse power, it torque. I read some old moline sales literature on a 8-18 rigid plow and it said that a G1000(which is 112 in drawbar HP) could pull it at full depth about 12-15 inches is about what it said. Any way what I'm gettin to is that a tractor can have 150HP and can't pull a 18" bottom plow unless it has a good amount of torque which is the holy grail of the tractor world(I have to brag: Minneapolis Moline found the holy Grail in big cubic inch, low rpm & high torque engines) . The reason a G1000 can pull a plow that big is cause of the big torquey 504CI engine at 1,800RPM(loaded) made as much torque as a good 150HP tractor that runs a smaller cubic inch and higher rpm. With out a good amount of torque nothing can be done.
