Steve: I was never around those 30 series Deere very much. A neighbor had a 4630 and something burned some wires when it was new. I trucked it off to the Deere dealer for him. He thinking I'd bring back a replacement, however the dealer didn't have anything that hp in stock. The dealer asked if I'd rent him my 1066 to keep his customer chopping silage. I agreed and the guy took my 1066 for a couple days until the 4630 was fixed.
When he brought it back, I asked how it worked for him. His responce, "By the hell, it makes that damn Deere look sick." I always thought 1466 and 4630 were a match, at least according to specs. My 1066 cranked out 155+ from the day it was new. I know there were several months of chewing the rag before Deere had him happy. Must have been one of those Fri. afternoon built tractors. They did make it work right in the end.
Good thing as the customer was a true John Deere man, but he was also quite hard to get along with. Very bull headed. Later in life he had heart problems, had to have a pace maker. He didn't get along well with that either. A group of farmers and the Deere dealer were having a chat. Someone suggested to the Deere dealer that Deere should start making pace makers, might solve G's problems. I must have caught him in a weaker moment when he said 1066 made the 4630 look sick. I never thought he'd say that even if it were true.
