More Power - Uhhh ohh ohhhh, ( tim the tool man grunts )

Man I am buffaloed, idiot greenhorn here pondering the HP Dilema. Why does a 560 with a 282ci diesel engine, who it appears shares the same engine with a 656,660, some 706 only have 60ish hp and run at 1800 rpm when its cousins are running the same engine at 2400 rpm and getting 80hp out of it. Are they turned down because of hte drive train not being able to take the extra HP?? My dad has a 1963 560D and I am going to be purchasing one from my FIL. We are both wanting to get a little more power from them mainly for cutting pasture with a larger mower. They seem to pull down quite a bit in this heavy humid pasture. How easy is it to have them turned up to put out the 2400 rpm and 80hp, will a pump from a 660 or 706 just bolt on??

thanks,

Robert
