You are posting negative remarks and accusations about a business. I’ve had the same policy on this page for approximately twelve years now… you MUST post your real name and contact info (address, phone number, etc…) if you are going to speak in a negative or derogatory nature about a business or an individual. It ensures that you are indeed being truthful, and you are a legitimate customer,by Jake Morgan - Pulling Forum

Re: Sheetmetal - 16 years ago
As far as the trucks are concerned, they are a completely different topic, their rules that have always allowed for any engine combination with any body style. However, the tractor engine updates you mentioned are because of the stock cranks swinging in OEM blocks. It’s why a DT414 and a DT436 and a DT466 can all be interchanged in most classes.

Re: Sheetmetal - 16 years ago
I’m not implying the guy built an illegal tractor. I’m simply saying the rules should be written in the rule book in black and white for everyone, not just one guy or one brand. There should never be special permission from the board, the class, the president, etc…, it should be for everyone or no one. I feel the same way about grandfathering a tractor into a class.

Sheetmetal - 16 years ago
In my personal opinion a 505 Cummins should only be legal with a new rear-end (NH, CaseIH, Agco, etc…) and matching new sheetmetal. Not Cockshutt sheetmetal. A Cockshutt with a 505 makes no sense to me, a Cockshutt should have a Herc or a Continental, or even a Cat, because that’s what they came from the factory with. And yes before someone jumps in with Cockshutt is Agco…, yes I understand theby Jake Morgan - Pulling Forum

Dear new reader... - 16 years ago
Glad to have a new reader to this page… If there’s one thing I’ve done on this page it’s advocate for small cubic inch classes.

Re: I love sparkplugs...thay cant stand spark plugs - 16 years ago
Personally I love Moline, I grew up on a Deere and even though there is nothing like the sound of a two cylinder I’ve always liked the Prairie Gold, those big slow running engines are torque monsters.

Some of you may have noticed that the For Sale and Wanted pages are down. I thought it was a great time of year to think about sacrifice.

Re: I love sparkplugs...thay cant stand spark plugs - 16 years ago
Yes, there are heads that fit, but they are still not stock fuels for those tractors. Only MM made large tractor with sparkplugs. After all the goal is a tractor class, not an irrigation pump class.by Jake Morgan - Pulling Forum
Re: I love sparkplugs...thay cant stand spark plugs - 16 years ago
Let’s just call the stock fuel idea what it really is: The Moline rule or Moline exception. Nobody other than Minneapolis Moline made large tractors for LPG or Gasoline. The rule would only benefit one brand, and I’m not in favor of any rules that benefit a single brand or an extreme minority. Moline made plenty of diesel tractors as did EVERY other manufacturer.

I love sparkplugs... - 16 years ago
There are already a disproportionately high number of sparkplug tractor classes in comparison to the number of sparkplug tractors produced between 400-500 cubic inches. Roughly 99% of all 400+ cubic inch tractors were (and are) diesel. Yes Moline made some great LP tractors, as did Deere and others, but they made up a very small portion of the total number of tractors produced. Of those sparkpby Jake Morgan - Pulling Forum

Re: Limited Pro Stock - 16 years ago
I highly doubt the efficiency of a 5.25” turbo sucking through a 3” (for example) inlet restrictor pipe, and pushing that same air though a 3.5” (for example) outlet restrictor. The turbo would be “starved” for the air necessary for efficient flow. A theoretical drastic decrease in air density or drastic increase in air velocity would be the only way to make the turbo run near efficient operatiby Jake Morgan - Pulling Forum
Re: Limited Pro Stock - 16 years ago
The restrictor pipe is a much easier and much cheaper long term solution. It allows for freedom and creativity, but everyone still has to pull the same amount of air through the same hole. Pulling has tried turbo limits and it’s tried spec chargers, it’s time for a new approach. Restrictor pipe in, restrictor pipe out… simple and done.by Jake Morgan - Pulling Forum
Re: Limited Pro Stock - 16 years ago
I think alcohol is great for a LLSS and a LSS class, but not a Limited Pro or a Super Farm class. 99.9% of tractors produced in the 400-500 cubic inch range were Diesels, the rules should reflect those numbers. I agree that the LLSS class is a great class, and they would benefit from a uniform set of rules, but I think that class is a completely different topic than the Limited Pros Stock.by Jake Morgan - Pulling Forum
Re: Limited Pro Stock - 16 years ago
If your going to limit it to stock manifolds then I agree, a 12” tube would be a bit of a stretch (I really dislike stock manifold rules for a performance class, all it turns into is who can find the most exotic stock manifold from a boat/dozer/garbage truck/jet ski/ etc…). I really doesn’t matter to me if its 18”, 12”, 6”, or 3” (3” seems like the minimum in my opinion) as long as everyone agreby Jake Morgan - Pulling Forum

This is my opinion but I don’t think the Limit Pro Stock is trying to change the Super Farm class or the Pro Stock class.
