I would go Case or MM for bang for the buck. That being said, I think it is most important to go with big cubic inches. For that Hp I wouldn't get anything with less than 500 cubes. Some of the makes you listed just take a 300-400 cube engine and turbo it up and run 25-2800 rpm to make their rated power. You want no less than a 5" stroke , no less than 500-600 cubes and preferably a straight gear type trans. These things are 40-50 yrs old now, you don't want a screamer with automatic trans,unless you are looking for work. G-1000,s are a bargain as are 70 Cases. My pick for value/power/longevity/looks would be 1175 Case , straight gears / big engine / outboard planetaries and most were open station. I assume you wanted 2wd,didn't say. If you look carefully, I still think you could get a descent JD 5020 for under $ 10,000 with aftermarket turbo or non-turbo for $ 7500 and put a turbo on for anywhere from 140-155 hp with stock engine. As for price, anything descent with that HP is going to be close to $ 10,000 unless you get a "western" "wheatland" model without 3 pt. (lots of hard hours)

Today's Featured Article - Restoration Story: 1964 JD 2010 Dsl - Part 2 - by Jim Nielsen. Despite having to disassemble the majority of my John Deere 2010's diesel engine, I was still hopeful I could leave the engine-complete with crankshaft and camshaft-in the tractor. This would make the whole engine rebuild job much easier-and much less expensive! I soon found however, that the #4 conrod bearing had disintegrated, taking with it chunks of the crankshaft journal.
