You are definitely talking about doing major surgery there.  As Eldon said, it would be cheaper to buy an 8010.  What is wrong with the 433 engine?  Nothing that can't be rebuilt.  If the block is toast, there are lots of F2/F3 combines with these engines in them - should be easy to find.

Apparently AC was experimenting with this idea before they got bought out.  There were doubts that the power train would hold up to the power of a 301.

If your motivation is to do it to see if it can be done, then by all means....But I think it would be quite an undertaking.  Personally I always thought that the 301 in a 6080 would be a perfect combination.  I always disliked how our 6080 was always under powered unless it was wound out.  We also had a 200 and I always wished I could merge the two.  
  As the previous comment said the 8010 would be a cheaper easier option, but not nearly as nimble as a loader tractor.  My solution was a cummins re-power which had a an extra 15-20 hp and a bit more low end torque.  If you decide to do the 301, I would love to hear about it.

I wouldn't do it to a 6070, they are already hard to get. I've had the same idea but I was going to find a 6080 out of a salvage yard to make a 6095. Lol. Anyway you look at it, it would be a major money pit.

I agree with the 8010, but this 6070 is going to be my loader tractor. I can't imagine an 8010 being a good loader tractor with the shifter being used by the same hand as the joystick for the loader. Nothing wrong with the engine in the 6070. If I sold the engine and used that money to buy a good 301, what other big expense would I have?

A 301 would destroy that Fiat drivetrain if you tried to put the power to the ground.

Stretching the frame, front drive shaft, machining and fabrication, making sheet metal changes...

Why would you want to do all that work if you already have a good running engine?  The 433 already has good power.

You know, if this was a D-19 diesel you were trying to transplant a 301 into, I would understand. D-19 diesels were simply not a very good engine. Now, a 6070 ?? They have a pretty darn good engine to begin with. Changing to a 301 just for a loader tractor??? I guess for the $$$$ that is going to be spent, I'd be looking for something a little newer with a shuttle shift on the steering column that was actually designed to be a loader tractor. If you run a 6070 long enough, you'll figure out it doesn't have a 4 or 5 MPH reverse, making it not my first choice for a daily driver with a loader. And then, there's the smaller diameter dry type clutch.........

Since you asked for thoughts, I'll give mine.  Since your 6070 has a good engine and you're using this as a loader tractor, I can't fathom a reason to do this transplant.  You have nothing to gain and could end up with a cobble job.  If you really want to do it, find a 6080 with an engine that's already blown up or something.  There's my opinion.  It cost you nothing so I guess it's worthless!!!!  LOL

So, you are probably targeting somewhere between 60 and 75 PTO hp (dealing with a 190, not an XT)...

Your stock 433 in a 6070 already puts out 70 hp (or so it should).  The 433I in my 6080 already dynos over 100 on the pto (more than my 190 XT at the moment).  Hence, no reason for a 301 in my opinion.

I have to agree with the above comment as well.  The reverse speeds are not good for a loader.  Either way too slow or way too fast.

301 set at 90hp and a 433I set at 90hp would still be different    similar to an M11 running 400hp and an 855 running 400 hp.  We have three other 6000 series tractors, all with loaders and I can't think of any other Allis tractor that would be better than a 6000 series, to have a loader on. Run the joystick with the right hand, and the shifter with the left.

a little info..... tractor is paid for and if I sell the 433 and buy an 301, wouldn't I be ahead to start with? (money wise) I am completely fine with spending some money on this project. I just think a 301 turned down would last a long time. Not to mention a 6 cylinder engine would have more guts than a 4 cylinder. Am I right? Thanks for the comments and keep them coming.

And we have a parts 6080 , we have extra 433s sitting in the shed. And l don't care what anyone says a 301 will pull a 433 thru it's asshole. No comparison between the 2 l don't care what any dyno says. We are just toying with putting a 301 in a 6000 series. We have an 8010 we have a 7010, we have 190s we have 200s. We have all the 6000 series, we have extra 6000 series parts tractors . Can you bolt a 301 to a 6080 bell housing is a simple question ?

I sold a guy a 433 to put in a D19, he used the plate from a 190 with a 301 so the 301 should bolt up to the 6070 plate. I looked at a 6080 I have apart in my shop and it looks like there is plenty of room between the crank pulley and the front axle bolster to accommodate the longer motor,move the radiator forward relocate the batteries and I think it should work

Your money you can do what you want. Personally I always felt a 301 was a very disappointing motor. Hard starting, fuel hog, and kinda of a dog. Years ago when the 7000 was our big tractor we had clutch problems the 6080 filled in for a few days. The 6080 did everything the 7000 could except it did have minor cooling issues.


I wouldn't contaminate a 6000 with a 301.

Never had a 6080, but we did have a 6060 with a loader that we eventually traded. It was a cold natured SOB and had to have ether if away from a plugin.   I'll take the 2800/649 engine any day over the 433. Years ago (1981) when pulling farm stock was actually farm stock, we had a chance to pull our 185 with 30" tires against a 6080 in 9000# class. We dynoed after the class, our 185 clocked 81 hp. If memory serves me correct, I think the 6080 was at 93 or 95 hp. Regardless, we outpulled that tractor by 20 feet. Never had a desire to acquire a 6080 after that.
