Is there any way yet to contact the Hunely brothers or some one else that would have done a Cummins repower to 6080 or anybody on here has done the repower. Looking to see if someone has a adaptor plate or any knowledge to give. Have a guy who is died set on doing the repower to two of his 6080's. |

I tried getting ahold of them a few years ago to do just that more so as a novelty never got a call back. I hindsight not sure why you would do it that may the best OEM motor ever made. ------------- 8030 and 8050MFWD, 7580, 3 6080's, 160, 7060, 175, heirloom D17, Deere 8760 |

Some people have more money than brains. The 433I engine is a tiny powerhouse that just doesn't quit when it's wound up. Tell him to rebuild his engines or grab a couple from wrecked F2/F3 combines. They are very reliable engines. The thrust bearing issues are caused by the PTO. If that is the issue, I am sure it would do damage to the Cummins engine as well. I see no benefit in making this change. ------------- '49 G, '54 WD45, '55 CA, '56 WD45D, '57 WD45, '58 D14, '59 D14, '60 D14, '61 D15D, '66 D15II, '66 D21II, '67 D17IV, '67 D17IVD, '67 190XTD, '73 620, '76 185, '77 175, '84 8030, '85 6080 |
