I Guess you Should have used a Mercruiser,....... <br /><br />
<br /><br /><br />BTW,....... Isn't that a Sacrilege to paint that IH with Ford blue paint,..??..!!!!.......
It was already painted blue when I got it. It belonged to a country club before I got it. They rebuilt it and never could get it to quit using oil. I've had it for 10 years now and I think it is finally broke in. It starts at 0*F on the second hit every time. In the last couple of years, it finally has quit drinking its oil. <br /><br />At first I was going to use a winch for my up/down and the cylinders for the power angle. My friend has that set up on his quad. His only gripe is that he can't apply down force pressure without adding weight to the blade. My set up will raise the front wheels off the ground about 6". Works great for busting up ice off the drive. With the brute force that this tractor can put on the blade, I had to weld the blade angle solid. It kept shearing the pin that locks the blade angle.
