What I said was not intended to be sarcastic. The 11' offset is without doubt a very heavy load on a 7710. But if you stop and think about it... what we've done is little different than the basic principle that Kubota follows with all of it's tractors. Take a small light frame tractor and small displacement engine... and turn the damn thing for all it's worth. The ironic thing as that these Ford's are still built heavier than the Kubota's... but that's another story. When mister was dragging the 11' disc with the Ford's he was changing a clutch a year in both of them. Wether that's purely from the power that was going through them or rough use, I don't know. I've only changed 2 clutches in mine in 7700 hours and it's still got the original pressure plate.
As far as nebraska is concerned... if they tested the tractors at actual varying speeds and loads that occour in real world conditions they could tell you a lot more usefull information about power and torque curves and varying efficiency curves of everything they test. As it stands, the only data I've ever seen published is efficiency at maximum power, at rated speed and then at varying speeds above rated up to high idle. That really doesn't tell you much...
