6430 performance question

[Tx Jim]

115 HP is a lot of ponies out of a 276 cid engine. Type of soil has a lot to do with ease of tillage. I wonder if it will be be capable of pulling a 5 bottom moldboard 10 yrs from now. My neighbor has a 6715(414 cid) MFWD that will stall out pulling a 8 shank Hay King pasture renovator.

Our 11 ton model payloader uses this engine at 140hp. The engine weight of this four banger is still more than a 5.9 Cummins six pot, so nothing to worry about.

Depends what gear you put it in....

The field in the picture has really good soil. It had not been touched in about thirty years. the ih 710 plow pulls really easy. in that field i can run c/2-3. I did a field for a buddy of mine it was the hardest clay ive seen in a while. I had to run b/3-4 c range would not doit. I pulled his john deere 5 bottom it did not turn as deep and felt like it had a sixth bottom. My hats off to jd for such a well ballanced tractor. I hope to still be pullin plows with it in ten years my red neck dream is to be cuttin hay with krone big m 400 :laughing: "ill have to win the lottery to do that"

If your plow was on every link of your 3 point hitch it would be a different story.

Yes, sir - that's a beautiful lookin' area! Must be all the rain that won't fall in west Texas falls on your place!

Lotta power to the ground and no duals or even a dual tire on the offset side! Great tractor...

Hey drkllr, what neck of the woods are you from? That's some nice looking WET/DAMP soil. Ours is dry as a bone. We have cracks already. Not planting a garden this year except a few tomato plants and onions.

Enjoy that machine.

Brucew44guns: I think you'll be amazed at what adding a "3" into your tractor number will do...630 into 6330
That's got to be one of the biggest "move ups" I've read about on here.
Did you get it yet? I'll look for a thread.

PS, drkllr, you need to adjust the date on your camera!
