I have actually never found out how far over 2400 rpm it can go. I have never dyno tested for myself either. The 105 hp number I gave you was what the dealer quoted me and my father. The farthest I got it to was about 2500 to 2600 rpm. At that rpm, the handlever still had about about a half or quarter inch to the stop. That 806 with the 361D is one of the most torquey tractors I have ever driven. I always tell my friends that when I drive by on the road, all of the white houses need to get repainted!! We used to use the tractor on a GB loader, which was rated for a 110 horse tractor. When I would idle into a pile of dirt, the loader would bow out before the tractor would even spin a tire. When we got it, the trucker said it weighed over 13,000 pounds (800lb of front end weights, full fluid in both rear tires, and four sets of wheel weights on each rear wheel. It has very low hours, with just over 5000 hours on it. Whats funny is that our 966D is cranked up to 110 horsepower, has hardly any more noticeable power, and uses more fuel. The only major repair we have done to it in the time we owned it was to replace the right brake(dead and leaking oil) and to replace a water pump(which ran for 1 summer with a 2 inch wobble).
