I vote for repowering your tractor with the diesel, provided you've got the equipment to do the job yourself. If you have to pay someone else to do the labor, the cost will be though the roof. I'd go with the 407 as it is just a bored and stroked version of the 361 that the 806 Diesel had. The 414 will be a little more work to make fit as it is wider at the front, you'd need 66 series frame rails and spacer plates between the front bolster, or you'd need to machine the front cover to fit between the 806 frame rails. The upside to the 414 is that it will be cheaper in the long run, should you ever need an overhaul. 361/407's are very expensive to overhaul.
