Do a search on "TractorData.com" then search for FARMALL, and a list of all Farmalls should appear, highlite 560 and a general information page comes up. Under the picture of a 560 Farmall at the top will be several sub-catagories, like Engine, Transmission, Dimensions, Photos, and TESTS. HIT TESTS. The results of each Nebraska tractor test of a 560 Farmall will be listed, one for gasoline, diesel, and LP gas, towards the bottom is a link to the actual final report published by the Nebraska tractor test lab. In the late 1950's when the 560 was tested they did a peak engine torque test. Typically IH engines did really well on this test. The technical name for this is "Torque Rise", as the load increases and the engine pulls down in rpm it pulls harder, torque actually increases 20 to 30%, sometimes 40%. It eliminates pulling the Torque Amplifier lever back to the low side. The 4-cylinder gasoline engines produced before the 560, the 450 and 400 models were amazing, rated rpm was 1450 rpm, torque peak was 750 to 770 rpm, and the torque produced at 750 rpm was substantially higher than the torque at 1450.
Combine an IH engine with the Torque Amplifier and it was surprising the work you got done in a day.
