Depending on soil type will make the difference . Over here in N/E Ohio for the most part a 706 with a C263 can get by with 4x16's plowing 8-10 inches deep running fourth low IF it is tuned correctly and ya run 93 octane gas . Only one time that i plowed a farm with a late model 706 with a 291 with 4x16's that it would not pull it in fourth gear low even with the T/A pulled back and it would not pull it in third low with the t/a in low but i did shear the bolts off the bottom where the fast hitch bolted to the belly . . That one farm i had rented had not been plowed in forty years and had over a hundred head of beef cattle run on it for that length of time and before that it was plowed with a team of horses. the seventy acres that i turned under was done with fifteen hundred lbs on the nose and second low with the t/a in low . That ground DID NOT just roll off the moldboards as it came up in slabs . IF your in heavier soil then 3x16's would be better .
