With a WC in the 4500 you have to compete with tractors like this.

In the 3000 class you only have to compete with tractors like this with your WC.

On paper, a D10/12 gives you a much better drawbar/HP ratio. Don't know how well they pull though.

he just needs a 226 gas motor stroked /bored to 400 plus cubes ,head massaged , compression over 12 not to exceed 16.1 and the embarrasement will change from lack of power to how do i hook all this power up.

Im enjoying all the advice....listening to much and and now thinking Im going to tweak the WC....Problem is most of you advise going to the 3500 class....very few pulls around here have them so I pretty much have to prep for the 4500 and up....

My boy ( 14 year old) going to start pulling with my Case 801 next year. It is good to hear all the sugestions. seems like the Oliver's and Farmall M's are tough to beat. I noticed that some of the tractors in the farm class, are far from being farm ready tractors. My brother pulls with a Case SC. Seems when you pull with 50 hp or less keeping waight down and running in the paced class keeps the competion fare. There is a Farmall M north of here. That the person is asking $800 for. Might go look at it for a puller. AC are expensive and getting hard to come by. Wish I would have kept a few of the ones I owned.
