Here i can not answer your question on this as to why you get by on the cheap stuff I just know what has happened with what we have dealt with . Yea mmaybe i am stuck back in the sixty's . But that is when these tractors were made and when the mid seventy's came around that was the end of the gas powered tractors . And that was when they made changes in the gas . That was when we first started having problems with our pick ups mainly because the group that i ran with did not have bone stock engines in them. My 460 gas tractor was anything but stock and it was a fight with it . Yes the copy of this as you put it is out at the farm in Eugene's desk . Now as getting someone to scan it and get it on here will take someone smarter on the thing than myself and defiantly smarter on computer operation then Eugene.He does not even know how to turn one on much less use it . Now the guys that have been getting along on the cheap stuff this i do not understand, is it because they are still running the org. pistons that were forged or what ?? do i have all the answers Not by long shot as i am still learning . And also why is it that some people are so cheap that you would worry about fifty or sixty bucks a year more for gas. Since just one hole from Case I H the last time we had to buy one was a 176 bucks and change plus the head set and pan gskt. Our fuel supplier has see this Lab report and the one time his new man brought the wrong gas out by mistake because Matt told him Take a load of gas out to Eugene's he loaded 87 and filled the tank with 300 gal. and Eugene filled the 706 and went to grind feed when he was about half way thru grinding the corn she seized up and she locked up till it cooled down . Then it fired back up but had a rap in # 5 with light scoring in 2 3 6 . 5 was toast Pulled her down and took the piston into Matt and set it on his desk and got the look of oh Shut and he called the new driver in and asked him what gas he took out and he said why the 87 why cause you said take a Load out to Eugene's and i loaded the reg. And Matt said my mistake and payed for the repairs . I still have that piston setting here in the office . as to New gas verses old gas Ck's thinking on this is not correct and 89 IS not the same as the 93 or what ever he was tryen to get across. Even Clevit performance will tell you that with the 93 octane of today that when building and engine for Street use you MUST limit compression ratio to no more the 9to1 and there is a world of difference between a STREET engine then a engine that is pulling a load . And here again would Forged pistons be better over the Cast pistons that they are suppling now on the rebuild probably . Gas today is formulated for emission and newer engines run way hotter then back then . I could see the extra heat in my Massy 300 with the 225 slant 6 with pump 87 it was always over 200 degrees . First thought was bad gauge , installed a Stewart and Warner showed that she was running at 215-220 . Changed water pumps with more impellers No change . Pulled the rad and had it rodded out and cleaned and flowede it was good . Still ran hot . Changed fuel grade one morning because the little station out in the middle of nowhere was out of 87 and he only had 93 and back then it was only a few cents more . engine temp dropped back down to 190-to 195 . and back to the question of this Lab report we do have it and as to getting someone with a scanner to do this i will try . But you are more then welcome to come and look for your self at it and the extra parts first hand and even run one of the tractors Trust me i have nothing to hide and i am not hard to find.

Today's Featured Article - Memories of a Farmall C - by Monty Bradley. When I was a child, my grandparents lived on a farm owned by a Mr. Walters. The crops raised were cotton and soybeans, with about forty head of mixed breed cattle. Mr. Walters owned two tractors then. A Farmall 300 on gasoline and a Farmall C, that had once belonged to his father-in-law, and had been converted from gasoline to LP Gas. Many times, as a small boy, I would cross the fence behind the house my grandparents lived in and walk down the turn row to where granddaddy would be cultivati
