Thank you for sharing that video. Very interesting to see that equipment operate. There is a natural gas compressor station close to where I live that used to have snow engines running compressors. Not sure if they were that large since it was at it's peak of operation in the 1900 - 1930 year range. There are pictures of the engines being hauled in sections using teams of horses that number at least 40 and some use of steam traction engines too. Never was able to see any of the engines running up close though.

400 HP and a fantastic torque - and at a 120 RPM - seems everything now is high RPM to get anywhere near that power . But shear weight of the unit and it all being machined to be parallel is amazing ,

I found some old pictures from back in 2001 when Allis was the feature tractor, the club was beginning to assemble this monster |
