Allan: I agree with others, probably a little confusion between flywheel, PTO or belt and drawbar horse power. You can do lot of modifications with a particular tractor for a 5 minute pull. Try putting them under maximum load for 5000 hours.

This is why Nebraska tests were so valuable. You could look at the flywheel horse power, compare with PTO and drawbar. Right away it told you how efficiently that tractor transfered it hp into actual work. Remember those tests Mr Larsen did at Nebraska, they were not a 90 second pull down a track. They were an endurance test. I just forget how long the pull and dyno tests lasted, but he brough more than one ot the tractors to their knees, so to speak.
