Local auction here in East Texas has this cool tractor sitting in the lot... Don't think it's up for auction.

5.9?

 

[walnutman]

I think 5.9. Pump is a P7100 I believe. Came factory in the 98 Dodge I believe.

Theres a lot of Fords running around with Cummins in them, but very few Rams with Powerstrokes lol

You've practiced that line, haven't you.

And for good reason.

Bet that old Fordson would get your field disked up in no time flat!

Unless the Cummins torque breaks something in the driveline.

German engine manufacturer MAN builds diesel engines for the larger AGCO/Fendt tractors.
They can make peak torque at a mere 1100 RPM. That’s really impressive and saves a lot of fuel.

Just like the Scania V8 engines, holding peak torque from 1000 RPM up to 1400 RPM. Nearly 2800 ft lbs on the 770HP V8.

Their newer inline 6, starts making peak torque right at 900 RPM.

Just “keepin’ it real”. lol
I will admit, the high output 6.7L Ford leads the pack right now.
Really impressive.

I think the Cummins could put more, but Ram seems content to lead from behind in power output.

Still like my in-lines better.

Years ago, when Dodge began using the B5.9, The Cummins factory in Columbus IN put that engine in their maintenance fleet of Ford F250's. I don't recall them ever selling those Ford pickups, but I did hear a rumor they junked them when the body/chassis wore-out.
The only negative issue with the B5.9 was the "killer dowel pin" in some years.

Yeah that was in the 24 valve 5.9 Cummins before they went to the common rail engines. I had one of those and never had the killer dowel issue.i also never experienced the lift pump issue, but those were known problems. I do prefer my newer common rail 5.9.
