2017 model info?

I haven't heard any complaints on loader speed with the l2501 so would imagine the pumps are matched well, higher gpm is always nice but depending on what you plan on doing not necessary.

As for the engine being de-tuned, it's done through reduced engine speed so no way to turn it up as the gearing for the pto is set for the lower operational speed.

For example, the engine in the B2650 with 26hp is the same as the old B2920 with 29hp, difference was that the B2920 was rated at 2800rpm compared to 2500rpm in the B2650.

why is it that some of the b series have a higher gpm on the hydraulics than the same or bigger L series? should that be a concern.
what is the diff in continuous running pto (L2501),and independant pto(b2601,b2650), or live with overrunning clutch L3301?

"They de-tuned one of the larger engines to just under 25-horsepower"--- sweet tell me how to retune motor lol!

The L2501HST has a live continuous with overrunning clutch. Unless you have the PTO lever engaged it does not run....

As for the differences I am not sure on all of them but it is my understanding that the independant PTOs are usually hydraulic.

Lastly "detuned" is a way of saying that the engine has been governed may have undersized injectors/restricted airflow. After the warranty is over on my L2501 I plan on looking into playing around with the horsepower a bit. Probably not until I do a good bit of research on it. I am really comfortable playing around with my Gen1 Cummins engines but both of them are in trucks with manual transmissions. They can easily take double the horsepower of the stock Gen1s.

Then again my L2501 does everything I want it to do, even if I get the additional 6 acres next door I do not see it falling short of what I will need or want it to do.

Honestly the best way to add any noticeable power is to go forced induction, I'm in the process of putting a turbo on my b2620 since I can't afford to upgrade. The D1105 engine was offered in a turbo version so it's a little easier
