|
we have been pulling a massey n/a off and on for a few years and seems we need a little help. we tryed to talk to a guy here and there and it seems no one knows any one who has a n/a tractor motor figured out. one thing that everyone agrees with is it takes alot more intelligence in getting HP out of an n/a than a blower . can some one lead us into the right direction? and by the way for you guys who think n/a tractors are boring and all that stuff ,I do not give a shfhthnbt what you think for I am still going to pull my N/A !!!!!!!!!!!!! ITS FUN FOR US AND THATS ALL THAT MATTERS... |

This would be one of the first guys I’d call for advice: Ed Shoobridge. Ed and his son Scott have built an amazingly impressive little Farmall, the Haul'N Harvester that just screams. Scott has stepped back from pulling, but I’m hoping that he gets back into it at some point, but Ed is still going strong.
Both Ed and Scott have been extremely interesting to talk with over the past few years, and it might be worth a shot to make a phone call and see where it goes.

Who are you going to pull with? A recommendation will depend on rpm, fuel, cubic inches, etc; |

Take it easy Mr. Downs calm down. It seems to me that several of the NA tractor that have been built and set up to run 3500 RPMS run very well at 10% over stock RPMS. |

correct. But there would be a difference between what you are referencing and someone putting something together something that will run unlimited rpm on alcohol.
The gentlemen that I believe Jake is referring to build some fine unlimited rpm small cube unlimited rpm IH motors. They may not be the people for 700 inch 3500Rpm diesel. Just making sure the people would be recommended for the job. |

Very well said Carl, I just re-read the original post and I mistakenly thought that they were referring to a Massey Harris instead of a Massey. So I assumed smaller cubes since most MH weren’t too big and generally didn’t smoke too much (except the MM Masseys), my mistake. Darn that reading comprehension stuff!
Carl is correct on the fuel, RPM limits, etc… it will make a huge difference on who to recommend. Jake Morgan Owner, PULLOFF.COM Independent Pulling News This page is a free service.

Being in central Illinois, Luke Miller in Arthur would be a good person to get ahold of. Theres a few good running v8 masseys in the heavy diesel n/a classes that he has worked on.

I'm no expert here, but fuel and air make power.
I'm guessing that in a NA class air (not fuel) is your limiting factor......that said, I'd look for someone that knows how to get a head to flow. ............................Mark |

Heads

Is that with the aluminium heads? Didn't that tractor get kicked out of the ISP? |

I don't care what kind of heads that tractor has. It whipped all the 800 minies with fuel injection and nitro methane when he was running diesel fuel. If I ran one of those 800's and got beat by a diesel I would be embarressed. All I ever seen ISP do was cry about this massey then railroad him out. |

Give John Jones a call at Odon Machine. John run years ago with ISPA and ran a N/A 1155 Massey. He was very competitive and had some things figured out concerning N/A diesels. He currently has a SuperFlow flow bench and does a lot of diesel heads. He also does fuel injection pumps for N/A's and also turbo's for blower tractors. He's a little hard to get a hold of, and is usually very busy, but he does know a lot. Some complain that it's hard to him to get their things done, but those who don't wait till the last minute usually don't have a problem. He also gives his customers good service after the sale. Give him a call at (812) 636-7781. |
