Oliver powered gehl chop all?

I came across this photo of what looks to be a gehl sp82? Chop all, but it’s got an Oliver power plant, looks pretty cool and thought I’d share

That is very interesting. I thought a Super 99 was DD 3-71 only. But research shows it could have had both gas and diesel Oliver/Waukesha 6 cylinder engines. Square engines too!- 4x4, just like the AC WC/WD

When I was growing up and working on my Uncle's farm in western Mn, he had a 6cylinder Oliver Super 99. It didn't have the power of the 3-71, but didn't have the noise either. It was a good tractor for that vintage, I ran it enough to like it. It didn't have power steering, but it steered real easy.

So just the power unit then. I had visions of some of the first self propelled potato harvesters around here in the 60s. They'd take the wheels off Oliver 1800s, 4020 Deeres, 806 Farmalls, put big roller chain sprockets on the axles and power the harvesters with the whole tractor.

Yep, and I believe that Waukesha 302 was sleeveless as well. Sucks if you have one that's stuck, like us.
