Hey Whatswrong,

I'm not sure what a "repower project" is...

Are you talking about swapping engines?

Either way, I understood what you meant.

It doesn't seem to be something folk do with tractors - well, SOME probably do, but not a major activity among those with triple digit IQs.

Yes,changing engines is right I swapped a 1086 IHC from 414 to 436 out of 4166 IHC and Versatile 700 from the Cummins 555 to a Cat 3208 out of my NH1500 combine .I.Q. isn't much of a factor , imagination is the only limiting factor the rest is guts and cash to do it. I realize most of the discussion seems utility and yard tractor related so I may be off topic.

I am very interested in repowering compact tractors. The probelm is that everything on the tractors is so small and tight. The engine compartments are already packed and there is no wiggle room for a bigger engine.

OOOHH don't get me started....NH combine engine in a fordson major....Chev V8 in a fordson major ...Cat 3208 in a landrover...Perkins truck engine in a claas combine.....Detroit 671 to a Cummins 855 in a truck ..and more ...the time i have wasted HaHa.
Never seen a forum for this but i bet a look at tractor puller sites would come up with something...?
What is the repower you have in mind..?
