Approximately how much HP is needed to run road gear for a IH 560? Will be running 24.5 tires on clay tracks. Looking to start a build and was wondering what HP to shoot for to run the gear. |

Just sayin

I would recommend over 1000 to 1100, North of 1200 to 1300 would be better especially if you are running on tight clay!! Best of luck with your build. |

Just a thought

More details bud.
What weight class? What other restrictions do you have? Turbo, cubic inch limit, etc….? What gear ratio is 5th on a 560? I know the small frame 656’s are around 19:1. Definitely gonna need 1000+. |

Been there

All of 1000 hp needed to turn road gear. And also a stock 560 rear end in 5 th gear will not last long in how it is designed. I would highly recommend figuring out ur ratio you want and having custom gears made in a different gear spot. |

a 560 is 17 to one |

If what Mr. Lewis is saying is true, I change my answer to 1300 plus hp. 17:1 is a tall gear!!! Especially if yall are on tight clay. What part of the country are you pulling? |

Better just go ahead and contact atlas and get a gear set combination on the way or a atlas max because 5th gear won’t last long at all. |
