Hi Allan, Yeah, I liked the retarded tractors bit too.... I'm not sure that I can fully explain the problem with the Deere, but it does make some sense to me. Think for a minute about intakes, carbs, heads and porting, especially in a race engine. Most of these intake systems have a point at which they are optomized to flow, right? They determine largely how well the engine breathes and where it makes power. Get enough lift to the cam, and the darn thing will shake the fenders just trying to idle. My guess is that the old Deere's intake system flows better at full power than at idle. Wouldn't be much good to work better at idle and not at full power. Then mabey they wouldn't have been so popular. Now, mabey I'm wrong, but at least I threw some gas on the fire. Have a good 'un. Rod
