| If you can find m&w pistons for a 201 will bring up comp. quite a bit. Assuming rpm. that most pulls allow, around 18-1900, around 60 is about the best I've got. |

Wasn't a 175 gas (226) rated at 60 some HP? So that would be top of the tractor series.
The Combine and Power units were rated higher but that was Flywheel HP ------------- Charlie '48 B, '51 CA, '56 WD45 '61 D17, '63 D12, '65 D10 , '68 One-Ninety XTD |

| The model 175 gas tractor was rated at 60 HP at the PTO and 67 HP at the flywheel, both at 1800 RPM loaded. I'd guess with a well tuned D-19 style carb, that stock engine could see maybe 73-75 flywheel HP at 1800 RPM, but at 2000 loaded RPM for sure. More compression and good racing gas will just keep adding to those HP numbers. |

| Thanks for your replies. Now lets go the other way, lets say its only gonna turn 1500-1600 rpm, how can you make this engine lug--torque? I am guessing cam and its timing would be a big part of that, how about compression? I always heard high compression is great for hp, but not torque. I have also heard high compression with good fuel and retard the timing will bring torque. I am trying to figure out if there is any way to get enough power to run 38 inch wheels on my wc in the 4000lb. class. I have seen WDs with 45 crank and 4.125 flat tops struggle to do it. I know wd is geared lower than wc, so I wonder if I can do it with out building a "bigger enginge". |

| Camshaft timing advance would help with "lug". These flywheel HP specs are from a standard D-17 gasoline @ 1400 rpm.....52.0 HP @ 1300 rpm......48.2 HP @ 1200 rpm......44.2 HP @ 1100 rpm......40.2 HP @ 1000 rpm........35.7 HP @ 900 rpm........31.4 HP @ 800 rpm...............peak torque was at 1100 rpm with 211 ft lbs. |

Compression will help with torque.

Would a heavery flywheel help on lugging down? |

| Heavier flywheel helps somewhat delay the "stalling" of the engne as the load increases. Doesn't make any more HP, but helps in some situations and surely never hurts. |

| Has anyone ever put a gas head on some thing like a 226 diesel block ? Just a lame idea.It would have higher compression and have stronger parts in all the bottom end. |

No such thing as a 226 diesel block. ------------- '49 G, '54 WD45, '55 CA, '56 WD45D, '57 WD45, '58 D14, '59 D14, '60 D14, '61 D15D, '66 D15II, '66 D21II, '67 D17IV, '67 D17IVD, '67 190XTD, '73 620, '76 185, '77 175, '84 8030, '85 6080 |
