I need a real IH pro here to help me out with a few questions about IH diesel engines. I have only had a MF with a Perkins Diesel engine that is excellent. My question is what diesel engines would I find in IH tractors such as the old beautiful 460's, and 560's, and up to 706, 756...and those type models? I really like the Wheatland wide fronts, and any sort of High Crop style. I heard of a German Diesel in one. Is it any good? Who made it? What are the sizes? I know this may be a pretty broad question, but I only ask for the diesel info instead of asking for all the engine info...and I know there have to be some experts out there that can spout this stuff off the top of their heads in their sleep. I am seriously thinking of going to an IH for my next tractor, instead of a MF 135 to 175 with the Perkins and multi-power(live on flat ground). What is a good 35 to 40hp IH diesel that is comparable to the same size Perkins...or is it a Perkins? What about an IH 60hp diesel? I have an old family friend that was a dealer in Oregon for mainly IH and A-C, but he is seriously ill, and 2800 miles away, so I can't ask him too much. Does IH have any Perkins motors in their tractors? If so, which ones? The most important question, I guess, is what are the best diesel tractor models by IH in the 35hp to 40hp range...because I think I will go smaller than my current MF175. I'm getting more acreage whenever possible here in E. Texas...and need strength and reliability in a medium to small tractor. Any info would be greatly appreciated and I will thank you now, ahead of time. Lynch

When Push Comes to Shove - by Dave Patterson. When I was a “kid” (still am to a deree) about two I guess, my parents couldn’t find me one day. They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
