Choose a CA, WC, or WD

WC....same engine as a WD but much lighter....only dissadvantage is they're geared a bit high but I run pace class with mine. Easy to lighten up too. Get rid of the cast rear wheel centers, cultivator lift and go to a dry air cleaner and lose the old one will cut a pile of weight.

This type of class is made to order for the WC. I pull B, C, and a couple of different WCs. If I could only have one pulling tractor it would definitely be a WC! Kip

If you want to pull heavier and they start beating up on you, put some 4 1/8 th pistons and WD45 crank in it. Put a muffler on it & no one can tell the difference. If they ask how you suddenly got more power--I don't know-just cleaned the carb.-must have been stopped up--LOL

yes but i have found that with stock sized tires and weight, a stock tractor powers out quite easily, i would say toss up, wc's look good especially unstyled but without a doubt i love the foot brakes on my wd, especially when i got the front end up and need to steer with the brakes lol. also i prefer the throttle position on the wd better, just a couple small things, i would look at and sit on both and see what you like better. i beat up on hopped up wc's all the time with my stock wd, remember what they forget, with a stock class tractor you only need enough power to go all the way in your heaviest class in first gear

As anyone that knows me, I'm partial to CAs. I have two CA pullers one with a turbo and the other has a built engine. Both are a good match for each other and pull the 2500 pound class in third gear with oversize tires. A good stock CA can run 2nd gear with stock tires at 2500 and you should be able to stay under 3MPH. But at 3000 you'll need to use 1st. Then you'll regularly get beaten by the WCs for which the WC is the perfect tractor. It is easy to remover the PTO, hydraulics and heavy hitch parts to get to 2500 and have some moveable weight. No need to remove the right hand axle clutch if it's in good condition as it will handle more power than the stock CA engine can produce this will also not destroy to complete look of the tractor if done right. It is not too much work to get a CA to making near 30HP for tight tracks.
I might be coming down to Woodstock in June with the non-turbo CA to pull, as this year they feature Allis. If you want to come up and see how I done my two send me a message. PaulB in Md
