Comments: - - The man decided that was his Massey Ferguson tractor really needed was not another plowing accessory or field work hardware. No. The guy dropped a Chevy V8 into the tractor and is now enjoying the fruits of his insanity.
The engine we're talking about is a 350 Chevy, which has received a custom exhaust setup to go with the agricultural theme. The V8 works with a Powerglide automatic tranny, while all the muscle is sent to the field/road via a Ford 9-inch rear end that was narrowed in order to fit....
Nothing but respect for the build quality. Seriously, my jaw dropped at how incredibly well that thing tracks. Anyone can cobble together some monstrosity, but not many could build something that goes down the highway that straight and true. Sweet sounding small block my man, much respect.
Love hearing that electric fan after engine stops. Amazing job. I'd just sit there in the yard and stare at it all day while drinking busch. 'Merica
Outstanding build. Excellent job of keeping the stock look. Love how you used the variable speed lever for shifting. Throttle and choke levers still there. Seat still tips forward. And a scary ride-along to boot!
