Harry: I have a 5' Woods belly mower on my Super A, lots of power. In fact I have to be careful as the blades start to loose their edge. I have the belt tight as a fiddle string but it will slip if the blades get dull. If I suspect my blades are dull, all I have to do is put my hand on drive pulley when stopped. If it's hot those blades are dull. All this and I wont notice it on rpm's.
I think if you had a 72" mower it would allow you to set the wheels out to 60" centers. At 60" centers a Farmall 100 or 130 are very stable on hills. Make sure you have the cast wheel on the right and stick on a set of rear wheel weights. Those wheel weights coupled with 60" wheel tread turn these offsets into just about as stable a tractor as anything on the market.
I like my set up, I notice when mowing parallel to my nieghbors little 20 hp Deere with 48' mower, I'm making about twice the speed he is.
