Gee Hugh why even have a tractor pull if theres no noise.The more noise the better.Thats what I go to the drag races and tractor pulls for.Get rid of the noise and I'm outta there. I was at Macon,MO in 1991 for a NTPA pull and got to hear (8) modified tractors each running from 5-7 blown engines.Rodalyn Knox from New Hampshire with (6) JP1 Hemis beat The Banter Brothers from Indiana running (7) blown Chevs.6000 people went wild. I used to pull a 1966 Oliver 1950 in the 15,000 lb class back in the 70's.I have pulled it in front of 3,000 people at my home town pull and half of them said they only came to hear the little 4-53 Detroit scream.They loved it the night it took two pull offs before a 190 XT AC finally beat me.Have the times changed that much?I used to have people come out to ride on the Oliver's fender just to hear it when I farmed. Sure it would get old if everyone pulled a Detroit but one every now and then is fun.By the way I guess you wouldnt want to come and ride on the fender of my current 1967 Oliver 1950 thats run in the field with a straight pipe on sometimes. By the way I say leave it all IH and put in a DT466.

He'll be busy working and I’m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I’ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I’ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
