    Drop pan sled at Sigourney

    I think it's kinda funny how there's so many people that talk about how tough their big cubed antique tractors are yet when they hook onto the our "little" sled that we pull everyone is up in arms about how hard it is.... IMO drop pan sleds are little more challenging and it takes a little more...

    How are flywheels balanced?

    Getting a 2 cylinder engine balanced is a waste of money most of the time because most engine builders do not know how to correctly balance a 2 cylinder engine, the same tricks and rules of conventional engines don't apply. I have actually seen a tractor shake worse after being balanced at a...

    Hot 2 cylinder class.....Labor Day weekend in NC Illinois

    No, the entire class I pull in is 4 and 6 cylinder tractors. I always end up somewhere is the middle which is usually within 10-15 of everyone else. In this area there is just not any of the 800+ cubed Gs you see roaming around so I've just never had a chance to pull with one.

    Hot 2 cylinder class.....Labor Day weekend in NC Illinois

    This labor day weekend at our pull in Paw Paw, IL we would like to have a hot 2 cylinder class. Since there is not allot of big 2 cylinders in our area I thought I would ask on here if there would be much interest. Weight would be either 6 or 6500 since I know most G's can get down to that. As...

    how fast welded rods?

    I built a set of rods for my G and then sent them to Derek Holdren to get them really perfect and box them (I don't own a TIG) I spin it 3000+ rpm and have not had an issue. My old engine I spun 2500 or so with welded rods and then had an issue either.

    John deere A rod length

    Deck is the top of the piston to the bottom of the combustion chamber. If I'm figuring this correctly with that CR your deck would be .81 assuming your pistons are flat. If they are not then that has to be figured out and added to the combustion chamber. In order to end up at your target CR...

    8770 field cruise

    It lets you leave the throttle wide open and adjust the speed with a small dial for a more precise selection.

    battery

    I have a red-top in my John Deere G running MSD, fan, water pump, two fuel pumps, etc. I'm shocked at how well it performs. Even after sometimes 4 hooks in a day it still shows it hardly went down at all.
