Well, I can't help you with the brand, but here's what I can tell you. I would expect to see anywhere from 20 to 40 horse extra out of that motor all stock except for the turbo. Dealer mods are not uncommon, but are ill suted for that tractor. Neighbors had a well motor that came out of a stock 1155. Reason being, that motor destroyed the tractor, too much power for not enough tractor. They were meant to do the same work as an 1135 a gear faster, not to do more work. Shined on the PTO. Concept was shove a bigger motor in a current frame. 2000 series were an improvement when it comes to tillage. DO NOT ask too much of this tractor, it can be overworked. Motor, turboed or unturboed are great. Our Perkins V8 was put on the well in 1980, origional motor, never rebuilt, only internal work was when it dropped a valve. Probally has 20,000 easily, still strong but it isn't pushed. As long as you use it as if it were stock, it will be a great tractor.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
