No, Mr. Hobby, I'm think'in it may be YOU who doesn't know IH tractor V-8's very well, if you think they used Roosa-Master IP's in those BIG tractors, which was the brand mentioned in the first post. (I'm VERY familiar with those tractors, as there were quite a number of those around here, up on the open prairie. That engine about BROKE a neighbor of mine, 'til he gave up and got rid of it. The models with the 466's were GREAT, and another neighbor still uses his as his primary tillage tractor. There are a number around, also, that have been repowered with Cummins engines.) Certainly, I realize ANYTHING is possible, with enough $$$$,as it obviously was, since they DID build the 5.7 Diesel. My point is that the anecdote must be once or twice removed from the folks that actually built the prototype, because it contains inaccurate information that would not have come from folks actually closely involved in the project. There is so much misinformation floating around about the history of the 5.7's and 6.2's it's ridiculous.
