Here is a shot of my 20-35 working at Little Casterton Working Weekend. The loud "stack music" nearly deafened me by the end of the weekend!

I blame part of my hearing loss ,,although it is not that much at this point, on listening to the tractor exaust while cultivating beans, plowing wheat stubble, etc.
Dont think hearing protection was thought of that much in those days.

Ear plugs are for babies. Now what was that you said again? LOL
Nice tractor. I have the reproduction 20-35 metal sign hanging right above my head.

Nice picture. Now when is the video with sound available? Are you running on Kerosene or distillate? Just thinking it doesn't look cold enough by your dress to warrant the radiator covered up that far.

Now after years of reflection, When I was 16 years old, plowing and the fire was bright red coming 6" out of the straight pipe, do you think I needed ear plugs? I remember getting out of bed that next morning still hearing that humm. And to think the Doctor believes I have high pitch hearing loss?

I am with Dave on that. Those puppies really BARK with a straight pipe under a load. I can't imagine what it would be like to run one of my E's allday under a load. The flame out the end off the pipe is cool looking about dusk when it is pulling good

They certainly do "bark" when on the Dyno. Had my original '28 on a couple of years ago and it showed 44.5 HP on the belt on gas.

I am running on a home made "tractor vaporising oil" made from 75% kerosene and 25% unleaded gas. The blind keeps the engine hot enough to run very well on that fuel. As for ear plugs; they would spoil the experience of hearing the stack music - I think that a longer stovepipe would solve the problem of it being a tad too loud for comfort!
