I bought the tape! It was way cool. Just thought it was relevant to that other tractor.

And here I try to make HP out of them, lol

Yeah, that's cool! What part of the country? Used to be a Pontiac-powered Oliver in econo-mod class in ASTTQ (Quebec), but I never came across a Pontiac-powered mod tractor.

Not sure I understand your last sentence- you don't think pulling is all about power?

NHRA SD455 was just acting innocent/ignorant to spite any past or potential critics about what he runs. He makes Lots of power and we have to know the tractor was making Big Power to win a pulling competition. And in a naturally aspirated class at that.

Three SD455 engines on one vehicle is about the wildest thing I have heard lately. Would like to see that clip as well. Mr.Haney never sold tractors like that - too bad for Mr.Douglas. (circa Green Acres)

Awww man, I've seen those 3 and 4 engined tractors on TV since way back. I was slobbering about seeing one with 3 Pontiac Super Duty 455 carburated engines mounted to it. I'm a 73 Super Duty owner so things like that makes my nuts wiggle.

But you're right, this boy does need to get out more.
