329, 359, and 414 I've always called Dubuque engines. I guess because they came in Dubuque built tractors. SB Deeres are considered 404, 466, 7.6, 8.1, and 9.0 engines.

Re: Indoor Pulls in Iowa - 7 months ago

I think a "gordyville" style pull in east central Iowa would go over well. Something in the Cedar Rapids/Dubuque area. Only problem is I can't think of a building in those areas big enough to host a pull.

Re: LLSS tires - 8 months ago

A few years ago Spiegalbergs 5 star MM Ratitude had a set of 24.5s on at a pull in either Kentucky or Tennessee. Most of the other LLSs had 30.5s. He seemed like the only one that could actually hook up. The 30.5 tractors sat on top and spun.

Re: Paced class at gordyville!! - 11 months ago

They have some goofy rules in this class. The "no water injection" is worst in my opinion.

I bet since the original post is over 5 years old they figured it out by now.

Re: Which injector builder? - 1 year ago

No one is going to give you a honest answer. The pullers who invest the money and time to buy and test different products aren't going to give out that info.

Re: JD 9.0L crank in 7.6 block? - 1 year ago

Mains are larger on the 9.0L. You could drop it in an 8.1 block without issues.

Re: perma clutch JD - 1 year ago

You'd be better off starting with a different tractor and using a dry clutch. Converting your 4850 would take a completely new clutch housing and transmission housing. Go find a worn out 4320, 4520, or 4620.

Re: Minneapolis Moline G900 Pulling Project - 2 years ago

I believe there is someone now making adapter plates to put 8.3 cummins engines in MMs. That would be a great advantage over the original 4 main MM diesel.

You sure it's smoke and not just steam from left over coolant?
