I was discussing tractors with some guys and they weren't exactly impressed with horsepower ratings of 36 horsepower for an M. They claimed that then their riced Hondas could outpull a tractor if placed in the right chassis.(I don't picture that combination lasting long at load:) I then told them that horsepower isn't really the pertinent number here, and that torque is more important. I know that HP=(Torque x RPM)/5252. Does that equation apply here? So if it does, does that mean a 105 horsepower Farmall 806 at 2400 rpm makes 229.78 lb/ft of torque? Does gearing account for the rest? Would one of you guys mind enlightening me? I want to make sure I am telling these guys truth. This just proves they don't teach us everything in college:) Thanks.
