As you all know, I have 3 Farmall C's and a Super C.. Well, none of them are really all that powerful, so I am going to "Beef" one of the C's up... :)
I have decided on a 350 Chevy, with individual straight stacks, and 2 Eldabrocks on it, mo power...
On the C, I will have to make some brackets and stuff, but the issue I see is the lacking of frame rails, SO, here is the solution:
If I was to cut out stock steel (not sure what) and make two frame rails, and then bolt them onto the implement bolt holes that are factory on the tractor, and then extend the front end out a little bit, or what ever it took to comfortably drop that engine in there, would that work?
I would then have a longer tractor, and most importantly, frame rails to hook the engine to.. I could put a bigger radiator and an electric fan in there if needed, etc.
I would bolt the frame rails to the bell housing on the tractor, and then also on the side of the front end, I am sure that both of these spots would be strong enough, but I am not sure about the added reach? What do you guys think?
