We have discussed the thought of putting bigger fuel injection parts along with a bigger turbo (not giving details) on our 7045 for pulling, would like to still use it in the field, but play on the weekends, so we dont want to go crazy on it. How much power would it handle before having problems with clutches in the drive train, it is a power shift, i've heard there tough as nails, and I sure hope its not like menards nails, them things suck. Lol. We wouldnt leave it turned up all the way for field work, we'd turn it down to 150 or so. Any thoughts?
Thanks, Carl

Dr. Allis, you should have some idea of how much hp it would handle.

I dont think Id do this with a POWERSHIFT transmission , they start slipping and your done and they get expensive to rebuild ; I think \ heard you can get around 300 hp out of a PD tractor before the slipping starts , but its the engine clutch that gives first , a good POWERDIRECTOR will hold alot of power; as far as more horses , just crank on the pump a little ; or build a pump for pulling and swap em , a couple times and you get good and fast at it
