Man thats impressive 39000ft lb of torque.
as a comparison typical D4D or HD6 motor is around 250 ft/lb and even a D9H motor only has 2000ft/lb at 1000rpm. [know this as have dyno,d some in my younger days]
tits tyres and tracks

they all cost you money

HP is a function of torque x speed / constant... So if your running 80 RMP ( or 20 times slower than a new tractor), you have to put out 20 times a much torque to get the same HP...LOTS OF DISPLACEMENT to get that HP at slow RPM.
Like them all, but love the "B"s.
