I was wondering what kind of stuff could I do to my 6080 Allis chalmers to make a good pulling tractor out of it but still be able to take it home and work in the field with it

A friend of mine used to pull at the County Fair and farm with one. I set him up with water/alcohol injection ahead of the turbo and it would make 140 to 150 HP. He always did well in a 9000 lb farm stock class but there are better choices than a 6080 for HP.

A 6080 had a relatively small displacement engine that was already turbo'd and intercooled. The opportunities to farther increase its power (reliably) are more limited than other tractors that started with larger displacement engines.
