Here is another late reply. Oliver 1800. We had been used to plowing w/ the Super 88 for several years. Plowing mostly in 2nd gear at full out 1600 rpm. Then the 1800 Oliver came onto the farm with the 5 bottom semi mount plow in mid sixties. And it had the 16.9-34 tires, we thought how can you get that tire in a plow furrow.The 1800 engine ran maybe 2000 rpm in plow mode. There was an unbelieveable difference in hp between the two tractors. And it would pull the 5 bottom all day in 3rd gear direct. When a tough clay spot appeared all you did was pull the hydra-power out to drop into 3rd low (without clutching or stopping for gosh sakes) Hows did they get 12 speeds forward in that transmission. Nothing seemed to stop that tractor. But it was a gasser and without fail you better be close to the gas pump or have a gas can nearby cause after five hr run time under heavy load you would be out of gas. Still in awe when I see a mighty 1800 Ollie restored on here or at a tractor show.
