riverrat: Go one step further, call it 282 diesel, and doesn't matter whether it be in a 560, 660, 656 or 706. I put close to 25,000 hours total on my 560 and 656. Repairs on these two tractors were almost nil under 10,000 on each of them. I don't knw about the planet but definatly the most economical horse power I ever farmed with.

Even if I assume they turned their rated hp, which they did, always. If I assume my 1066 put out 150 which it did. My cost per hp with the 560 and 656 were much lower. 66 series tractors may have been great tractors, but they were heavy drinkers.
