45EB, My personal 4030 has a 414T engine in it. It has no holes cut in hood for turbo charger or any other alteration done to sheet metal or chassis. Exhaust exist out the original hole in hood and tractor looks original. Yes, I do have a larger than stock turbo on it that I would not use for farming applications but the stock 414 turbo will last just as long as the engine will in a stock setting atmosphere. He will have no need to worry about having a turbo charger on his tractor. I have been re-powering and servicing John Deere tractors and engines for 30 years and let me inform you that a turbo charger is not a high maintenance item on a diesel engine. The best engine for this gentleman's needs for all practicality would be the 359T but the 414T would do him a fine job also, just more than he would really need. By the way his original engine is a "329D" If you need more information on John Deere engines and turbo's please post back. DW

I'm aware of what the original engine was. He doesn't need a 50% increase in power, which is why I suggested a naturally aspirated 359 or 414. From what the man said, he's just looking for a slight power increase. I'm aware that the turbo is not a high-maintenance item on a diesel engine. He's going to be using his tractor in the field, not a pulling track, and the turbo'ed version of either engine isn't necesssary for his purposes. There are other opinions in the world besides yours, and I've found that tractor-pullers usually suggest far more power than anyone actually needs. No turbo means that nobody's going to mess up the tractor by getting too wild with the fuel screw. Just an opinion.

Sounds like some tractor puller must of steped on your chain! When it come to opinionated people you better take a good look in the mirror. I didn't say to increse his power 50%. Just because he uses a engine equipped with a turbo charger doesn't mean he is going to or has to increase his HP. The 359 turbo engine could be set to the same power level as his original 329 if he wanted it that way, the only difference besides more torque and performance is, he probably would get better fuel economy from the 359T over the 329D. Common sense goes a long way, give the guy a little credit. Besides it is his tractor and it is a free world last time I checked. DW
