You would have been a BTO in the sixties when those machines were king of the hill. Think of trying to haul away 500 bushels of corn per hour with flare box wagons if a 105 was running. A 95 and 105 together would possibly put out 900 bushels per hour. Three 350 bushel trucks of the day would be hopping trying to keep up.
My 105 gas averaged 500 bushels per hour with a 635 corn head in 150 bushel corn. I always wondered what it could have done with a 643. The raddle chain was about maxed out for capacity at 500 BPH even with the high speed sprocket if the corn was trashy so I might not have been able to go much faster with a 643.
The combine that harvests my corn is capable of ten times that amount though it usually averages only six times the 500 bushel figure.
