Ralph, You have corrected me, It was tripple turbo'd. I miss him to, we use to talk in the evening's all the time. I have 1 nice 8.5 X 11 color photo he sent me of him pulling, I have posted it here before. I'm sure he's keepin' eye on us AC guy's.

Wow Chris Theres a name from the past Bob Raycraft. I went up to his place in NY in the early 80s to pick up a 917 in the crate that we had sold, he was working on the D21 then and stopped to talk to me areal nice guy. He let me look through his AC junkyard outback. As luck would have it I broke the welded up frontend on my D17 aweek later and he sold me one of a tractor. Thanks Chris. Cal in Ct

Bob Raycrafts D-21, Mama's Throughbred was twin turbo'd, he had many wins withb that puller. He had spent alot of time out in the Allis plant with the appropriate people to get the info he needed to build pullers.

AC may have been working with some pullers, but twin/compound turbos weren't considered an "option".

I spoke with a guy once who pulled a D21 back in the 70's and said AC was supplying him with tranny gears, etc. Sounds like pulling in the 70's was a lot like NASCAR in the 70's. Win on Sunday, sell on Monday. AaronSEIA

No its for real, i have a NTPA magizine that has Noble Harrison going to Harvey Engine Works picking up a 426 with twins ,AC engineers actually set it up they put it in a 220 in early 70 ; but i believe AC quit shortly after that , product libility laws etc
